San Diego Padres outfielder Matt Szczur has been placed on the family leave list.
Szczur will be excused from the team for a few days to deal with a family matter. Reliever Buddy Baumann was called up from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move.
Szczur is slashing .209/351/.353 in 173 plate appearances (88 games) this season.
