Detroit Tigers third baseman Colt Keith is out for the remainder of the regular season after being placed on the injured list with right rib cage inflammation .

The 24-year-old revealed he is suffering from an intercostal strain.

There's no timetable for his return, but he hopes to join the Tigers for the postseason.

"It's tough to rotate right now without feeling pain," Keith said Saturday, Sept. 20, before the second of three games against the Atlanta Braves at Comerica Park, one day after landing on the injured list.
