ARLINGTON, Texas – The Boston Red Sox recalled infielder Kevin Youkilis from Pawtucket on Saturday, and optioned right-hand pitcher Tim Bausher to the Triple-A club.
Youkilis rejoined the Red Sox in time for Saturday night’s game at Texas.
Youkilis was on Boston’s opening day roster and played in just one game before being optioned to Pawtucket on April 13.
Last season, he played in 72 games as a rookie for the Red Sox, hitting .260 with seven homers and 35 RBIs.
Bausher was called up Friday when Curt Schilling was put on the 15-day disabled list.
