Red Sox infielder Brandon Phillips working his way back to majors

Brandon Phillips hasn’t appeared in the majors this year. Now he’s one stop away from a potential call up with the Boston Red Sox.

The veteran infielder was signed to a minor league deal last month. Phillips spent six games with the Single-A Lowell Spinners. He hit .318 with a .801 OPS, a home run and seven RBI.

Apparently that’s all he needed to prove at that level. Phillips has been promoted to Triple-A Pawtucket, putting him one stop away from the big leagues.

#PawSox roster moves today. Add INF Brandon Phillips from Lowell and reliever Trevor Kelley from Portland.
