Farmer did not factor into the decision in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Pirates, striking out two over two perfect innings.
Farmer was tasked with opening a bullpen game for the Reds after Andrew Abbott (shoulder) was placed on the injured list, and he retired all six batters he faced on 27 pitches. While the 33-year-old has not exceeded two innings in any outing this season, he owns an impressive 2.58 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 54:24 K:BB across 59.1 innings.
