Nick Hernandez News: Summoned from Triple-A

The Astros recalled Hernandez from Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday.

After a month-long stay at Triple-A, Hernandez will rejoin the Houston bullpen as a replacement on the active roster for right-hander Luis Garcia (elbow), who was placed on the 15-day injured list. Over five relief appearances with the Astros this season, Hernandez has submitted a 5.40 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 7:5 K:BB in 6.2 innings.
