Guttierez Frist To Make it Up

From ESPN:

OF Franklyn Gutierrez was called up from Class AAA Buffalo prior to Wednesday's game against Detroit. He started the season in Class AA Akron but was promoted to Buffalo on August 10. The 22-year-old batted .261 with 11 home runs and 42 RBI at Akron and .254 with seven RBI in 19 games at Buffalo. Gutierrez was acquired from the Los Angeles Dodgers on April 4, 2004 along with RHP Andrew Brown in exchange for OF Milton Bradley. Gutierrez made his major league debut in the ninth inning as a pinch runner for Victor Martinez. To make room for Gutierrez on the roster the Indians optioned lefthander Brian Tallet to Buffalo.
