Spiers gave up one hit and struck out one batter over three scoreless innings en route to picking up his first career save in Friday's 19-2 win over the Cardinals.
After being promoted from Triple-A Louisville earlier in the day, Spiers came on in relief of starter Brandon Williamson to put the finishing touches on the Reds' blowout win. Prior to the scoreless outing, Spiers gave up at least three runs in each of his first three career MLB appearances. Given that he tossed 40 pitches Friday, Spiers might not be available in relief for the Reds' final two games of the regular season and could be optioned back to Louisville in exchange for a fresh arm.
