Josh Reddick has been selected to the Arizona Diamondbacks’ 40-man roster and called up to the Major League squad on Thursday.

In his 11 appearances with the Aces, the veteran outfielder dominated at the dish, slashing .304/.365/.478 with nine runs scored and eight RBIs. The Savannah, Ga., native tallied base knocks in nine of his 11 starts, including an eight-game hitting streak from May 7-16.

During that span, Reddick went 12-for-33 (.363), scoring seven times and driving in just as many.

As an active member of one of the hottest teams late in games, Reddick shined in the eighth inning or later, going 4-for-10 (.400) at the dish with a trio of RBIs and three runs scored.

The 2006 draft pick racked up four multi-hit games in his tenure, including a pair of base knocks in his final game on Tuesday against Las Vegas. Reddick finished the 18-3 win over the Aviators with a 2-for-5 performance, scoring twice and driving in a run.
