Brewers' Chad Patrick: Sent down to Triple-A

The Brewers optioned Patrick to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

Patrick was called up to start the Brewers' series finale versus the Giants on Sunday, when he came away with the no-decision in a 4-3 loss after allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out seven across 5.1 innings. Though the right-hander will head back to Triple-A, he could be a candidate to make additional starts for the Brewers in September if the team loses another rotation member to an injury.
