The Cincinnati Reds have called out outfielder Phillip Ervin from Triple-A Louisville. He’s taking the place on the roster of reliever Wandy Peralta, who was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hip flexor strain.
For Phillip Ervin, it’s a return to the big leagues once again. He had two different stints in the Majors with the Reds in April. Then he had another short stint in Cincinnati during May. He’s back once again, and it’s coming at a time when he’s on fire. In June, down in Triple-A Louisville, he’s hitting .343/.410/.543. But he’s been hitting well for a while now.
