The Reds recalled Benson from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

The 27-year-old was demoted to Louisville a couple weeks ago but is back with the Reds after Jake Fraley (knee) was designated for assignment. Benson has a .224/.269/.415 slash line with nine home runs in 61 MLB games this season and should step in as Cincinnati's No. 4 outfielder.
