Reds' Will Benson: Optioned back to Triple-A

Cincinnati optioned Benson to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

TJ Friedl (oblique) is back from the injured list in a corresponding move. Benson, 24, has gone just 1-for-25 (.040) with 14 strikeouts and one walk in 10 major-league games this year with the Reds.
