The Pirates have placed pitcher Chris Jakubauskas on the disabled list one day after he was hit in the head with a line drive.

Jakubauskas took the shot off the bat of Houston's Lance Berkman on Saturday.

He has a concussion and a contusion.

"He"s doing pretty good," manager John Russell said. "He's feeling OK, a little tired obviously. We were fortunate. It could've been a lot worse. It's looking like it's working out pretty good for him. He was in pretty good spirits."
