Brigham was charged for eight runs on nine hits and four walks over just 1.2 innings in Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Yankees. |
It's far from an encouraging performance for the 27-year-old who had just returned to the Braves on Saturday after receiving the promotion from Triple-A Gwinnett. Brigham gave up two runs while recording no outs over in his previous appearance with the Braves on Aug. 15, so he's now given up 10 runs on 10 hits and five walks over his last 1.2 innings. Don't expect him to see much use in high-leverage situations during the season's final month. |

After spending the better part of nine seasons in the minors, Brigham finally received the call up to the major leagues.

A corresponding roster move was not immediately announced. |

Brigham, 24, has a 4.40 ERA over parts of six seasons in the minors, averaging 8.2 K/9 and 3.7 BB/9.
