06/04/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cleveland Indians have recalled right- handed pitcher Frank Herrmann from Triple-A Columbus.

Herrmann was 3-0 with a 0.31 earned run average and a pair of saves in 19 relief outings for the Clippers.

The 26-year-old gave up a run in his first appearance of the season and has since tossed 27 1/3 consecutive scoreless innings.

To make room on the roster for Herrmann, the Indians have designated right- handed pitcher Jamey Wright for assignment.

Wright was 1-2 with a 5.48 ERA in 18 relief appearances after being signed by the Tribe as a free agent during the offseason.

The 35-year-old Wright has compiled an 83-117 mark with a 5.03 ERA in 15 major league seasons with Colorado, Milwaukee, St. Louis, San Francisco, Texas and Kansas City and Cleveland.
