WASHINGTON (AP) -The Washington Nationals optioned right-handed pitcher Garrett Mock to Triple-A Columbus and recalled infielder Emilio Bonifacio from the minor league team.
Mock was 0-2 with a 5.27 ERA in five games, including two starts. He has been promoted from Columbus three times this season, and will work out of the bullpen in the minors.
“He’ll be back,” Nationals manager Manny Acta said. “We like him.”
The Nationals lost their ninth straight game Thursday night, then released catcher Paul Lo Duca and infielder Felipe Lopez.
