IN BRIEF : Reds’ Eric Davis on Disabled List

Davis, 26, injured his left hamstring muscle in Tuesday night’s 6-4 loss to the Expos in Montreal. Davis is batting .238 with six home runs and 18 runs batted in.
The Reds also said that Manager Pete Rose was returning to Cincinnati today at the request of team doctor Warren Harding to be examined. Rose, 48, missed Cincinnati’s two games in Montreal because of a fever and a cold.
