Duffy Recalled
From the Pirates Website.
CHICAGO -- Players generally want to make an impact right away when called up to the Majors, but no one could really blame Chris Duffy if he felt a little relieved to not be starting on Sunday.
It has been a bit of a whirlwind 24 hours for Duffy, after he was told about the Pirates' decision to call him up following Triple-A Indianapolis' 10-inning, 3-2 victory in Richmond on Saturday night.
After Indianapolis' night game stretched into a three-hour and 20-minute affair, Duffy had to get up at 4:30 a.m. CT on Sunday to catch a flight that got him into Chicago around 8:30 a.m. CT, just in time to head straight to the ballpark.
Duffy will take over the empty roster spot that came after the Pirates had to place Craig Wilson on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured fifth metacarpal in his left hand. Wilson suffered the injury when he was hit by a Greg Maddux pitch in the first inning of Saturday's game.
