Reds catcher Devin Mesoraco managed his third multi-hit game in his last four appearances Wednesday against the Giants. It was also his third multi-RBI game in that span.
Mesoraco had a productive four-game series at San Francisco. He hit .500 (8 for 16) with one double, two home runs and seven RBI. He's now batting .354 (17 for 48) with two home runs, three doubles and nine RBI in 14 July games (12 starts).
The Reds announced Wednesday catcher Ryan Hanigan will not return Thursday against the Dodgers after having a minor setback with his wrist injury. Mesoraco will remain the primary starting catcher until Hanigan returns.
