With Jeremy Hermida hurting himself in a collision with Adrian Beltre last night, the Boston Red Sox are a little short on outfielders right now. And with Hermida out of the lineup on Saturday, the Red Sox have called up Josh Reddick from Triple-A Pawtucket. Reddick is in the starting lineup in center field.
To make room on the roster for Reddick, the Red Sox have optioned reliever Scott Atchison to Pawtucket.
This will be the second stint for Reddick with the Red Sox this season. In his brief three-game callup in late April, Reddick hit .167 (1-for-6) with two RBIs. In 30 big league games, Reddick is hitting .169 with two home runs and four RBIs.
In 48 games with the PawSox this season, Reddick was hitting .191 with six home runs and 26 RBIs.
