D-backs activate center fielder A.J. Pollock (Yahoo Sports)

As expected, the Arizona Diamondbacks have activated center fielder A.J. Pollock and he was in the lineup for Friday night's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Pollock, an All-Star and Gold Glove winner last season, broke his right elbow in a head-first slide at home in a preseason game two days before the start of the regular season. Pollock was second in the batting order against the Reds behind Jean Segura and ahead of Paul Goldschmidt.
