Buffalo Bisons News Release


The Buffalo Bisons today announced that INF Trent Durrington has been activated off the disabled list. The team had room on their roster after Cleveland recalled OF Ben Francisco and RHP Edward Mujica.

Durrington, 31, was placed on the disabled list June 8 with a strained left calf. He has hit .200 (12-60) with two doubles, a triple and nine RBI in 25 games with Buffalo. He is also a perfect 6-6 in stolen bases. In two games as a reliever, he is 1-0 with a 0.00ERA (1.1IP, H, 2K).

Francisco leaves the Bisons as their top hitter. His .329 (79-240) batting average is also the fifth highest mark in the International League. In 61 games with the Herd, he has collected 18 doubles, six home runs, 34RBI and a team-high 15 stolen bases. This is Francisco's second trip to the Major Leagues as he was a defensive replacement for the Indians on May 1 against Toronto.

Mujica is also making his second trip to Cleveland this year. The Bisons' closer is 0-1 with a 6.35ERA and 11 saves in 22 games with the Herd (22.2IP, 24H, 16R, 16ER, 5BB, 23K). His 11 saves are tied for the fourth most in the IL.
