07/27/2010 -

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -Florida Marlins left fielder Chris Coghlan is headed for the disabled list with a torn meniscus in his left knee and he could need surgery.

Coghlan's injury was revealed in an MRI Monday. He was hurt while delivering a pie in the face to teammate Wes Helms following the pinch-hitter's bases-loaded single in the 11th inning Sunday for a 5-4 win.

If Coghlan needs surgery, he would likely be sidelined six to eight weeks. Coghlan was batting .268 with five home runs and 28 RBIs.

He was replaced in the lineup for Monday night's 4-3 win at San Francisco by Emilio Bonifacio. The Marlins planned to call up outfielder Logan Morrison from Triple-A New Orleans on Tuesday.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
