Gittens went 0-for-3 with a walk in Saturday's loss to Boston.

The 27-year-old was called up to the big club earlier in the day, and Gittens was immediately inserted into the starting lineup to handle first base. He failed to reach base in his initial three plate appearances before drawing a walk in the ninth inning. Gittens isn't expected to take on an everyday role, but he should get occasional starts while Luke Voit (oblique) remains on the injured list.
