Tim Tawa News: Returning to big leagues

The Diamondbacks recalled Tawa (rib) from Triple-A Reno on Monday.

Tawa was placed on Reno's 7-day injured list Aug. 2 due to a fractured rib, but he was activated Wednesday and will now join the big club to contribute as a utility man. He'll join Arizona's 28-man active roster as a replacement for first baseman Tyler Locklear (elbow), who was placed on the 10-day IL.
