This is a pretty short read, so I will just do a copy and paste job.

Catcher had been held out this season with back spasms
The Associated Press.

CINCINNATI -- The Reds on Wednesday activated catcher David Ross and put outfielder Norris Hopper on the disabled list.
Ross, the Reds' No. 1 catcher the past two seasons, had been on the DL all season with back spasms. He played in 13 Minor League games.

Paul Bako has done most of the catching this season and is hitting .321. Backup Javier Valentin has been used mainly as a pinch-hitter.

Hopper, who has inflammation in his right elbow, was put on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to Saturday.
