Hundley up, Alfonzo down

Wednesday August 12, 2009

Catcher Nick Hundley was taken off the DL and recalled to San Diego.

Hundley had been on the 15 day DL since June 18th with a contusion on his left wrist after being hit by a pitch by Dodgers pitcher Chad Billingsley on June 9th.

Hundley's .234 should be a boost for the Padres whose catching corp has hit just .201 since he went on the DL.

Eliezer Alfonzo, who has hit just .182/.204/.264/.467 since being called up June 19th, was opioned to AAA Portland.
