    McLain has shoulder surgery, will be sidelined for extended period

    Cincinnati Reds second baseman Matt McLain had surgery on his left shoulder and will be sidelined for an extended period. Reds president of baseball operations Nick Krall said the operation took place Tuesday to address cartilage damage and repair the labrum. The 24-year-old McLain last played in a spring training game on March 17 and was hurt the following day while diving for a ball during a workout. Reds manager David Bell revealed the injury on March 20, the day Cincinnati acquired infielder Santiago Espinal from Toronto.
