Before today’s game, the Arizona Diamondbacks recalled left-hander Matt Reynolds from Triple-A Reno as announced by General Manager Dave Stewart.
In order to make room on the major-league roster for Reynolds, the D-backs have also optioned struggling reliever Keith Hessler to Reno.
When Reynolds arrives in Cincinnati for this game, he will be the third D-backs pitcher to make a comeback from Tommy John Surgery this season.
Reynolds has not pitched in the majors since June 9th, 2013, and he missed the whole 2014 season.
