The Milwaukee Brewers recalled right-handed pitcher Logan Henderson from Triple-A Nashville and announced him as the starter for their Sunday afternoon road game against the Washington Nationals.

Henderson, 24, will be inserted into the lineup immediately, starting on the mound for the Brewers. Milwaukee has won five of its past six games.

Ranked as the No. 6 prospect and the top pitcher in the Brewers' system by MLB Pipeline, Henderson will be making his second big league start of the season on Sunday.

He is 1-0 with a 9.00 ERA in one appearance. He gave up two runs on three hits in two innings as an opener in an 8-2 loss to the Kansas City Royals on April 4.

Last season, Henderson started five games for the Brewers and was 3-0 with a 1.78 ERA.

In five games (three starts) for Nashville this season, Henderson is 2-0 with a 1.02 ERA. He has struck out 26 batters in 17 2/3 innings.

In a corresponding move, the Brewers sent right-hander Easton McGee, 28, to Nashville. He pitched two innings of relief this season in two games and allowed just one base hit.

Washington left-hander Peter Poulin (2-0, 4.11 ERA) will oppose McGee in the series finale.
