TORONTO -- The Red Sox have recalled reliever Chris Smith from Pawtucket.
Even though Boston had yesterday off, the pitching staff could use some help in the bullpen. This will be the right-hander’s fourth stint with the Red Sox this season. He’s 1-0 with a 2.16 ERA in five games for Boston. In 8 1/3 innings for the Sox, he has allowed two runs and three hits with four walks and seven strikeouts.
Since returning to Pawtucket on Aug. 7, Smith is 0-1 with a 21.00 ERA in three outings, having allowed seven runs and six hits in three innings. Prior to that, Smith had notched saves in each of his previous five games with the PawSox and had a 0.00 ERA.
