The Brewers optioned outfielder Caleb Gindl to the minors after Friday's 10-3 loss to the Pirates, calling up an extra pitcher after Friday's starter couldn't escape the second inning.
Gindl, who went 0 for 1 as a pinch hitter in the loss, was 5 for 20 with two runs, one RBI and one stolen bases. He has hit .274/.341/.456 with eight home runs, 38 RBI and one stolen base in 237 at-bats in Triple-A this season.
