DENVER (AP) -The Cincinnati Reds optioned left-hander Bobby Livingston to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
The move came a day after Livingston earned his first major league victory. He had been with the Reds since last Monday, and allowed seven hits in 6 2-3 innings as the Reds beat the Colorado Rockies 4-2 on Friday night.
“Bobby was brought up to be used in the bullpen and make an occasional start,” Cincinnati manager Jerry Narron said. “Last night’s start gave us what we needed.”
The Reds recalled right-handed Marcus McBeth from Louisville, where he had no record with a 0.75 ERA in 12 appearances.
“Marcus will be in the bullpen, but won’t work long relief,” Narron said. “He will be used for an inning, a batter or whatever else we need him for.”
