NEW YORK -- Less than 12 hours after making his Major League debut at Yankee Stadium, Braves right-handed reliever Evan Phillips returned on Wednesday morning and promptly learned he had been optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett.
Phillips allowed just one hit -- a homer -- while working the final 2 1/3 innings of Tuesday's 8-5 loss to the Yankees. But the Braves entered Wednesday's game knowing they couldn't use Luke Jackson and didn't want to use Jesse Biddle, so they spun their reliever carousel yet again.
Atlanta recalled its No.
