Reds Recall Mike Moustakes and Tucker Barnhart Option MLB Leading Hitter To Prasco Park




The Reds took Mike Moustakas from the 10-day Injured list and Tucker Barnhart from paternity leave.  They sent Tyler Stephenson to the alternative sight at Prasco Park with a 1,000 batting average.  Stephenson made one start and hit his first career home run in his first Major League plate appearance.  He was the third Reds' player to accomplish it.  Ted Tappe did it in Brooklyn on September 14, 1950 and Clyde Vollmer did it on May 31, 1942 against Pittsburgh.

Nick Senzel tested negative for Covid-19 and returned to the Reds' lineup.  Moustakes, who wasn't feeling well, also tested negative.
