In this story:


Former Cincinnati Reds catcher Austin Wynns was placed on the 60-day injured list and will miss the rest of the season due to an abdominal strain.

Wynns played in 18 games for the Reds this season, slashing .400/.442/.700 with six extra-base hits before being traded to the Athletics. He played in 22 games with the A's, slashing .222/.242/.444 with eight extra-base hits.

Wynns has spent time with six teams across seven seasons in his career. He was drafted in the 10th round of the 2013 MLB Draft by the Baltimore Orioles.

After spending most of the season in the minors last year, Wynns re-signed with the Reds on a minor-league deal in the winter. With Tyler Stephenson missing the start of the season due to injury, Wynns and Jose Trevino split playing time at catcher until he returned.

The Reds will face off against the Phillies in game two of the series at 6:40 ET on Tuesday night. Brady Singer will start on the mound for Cincinnati.
