Hendrickson, a Minnesota native selected by the Brewers in the 10th round of the 1999 draft, made a spot start for the Brewers on June 2 when Ben Sheets was sidelined by dizzy spells.
Hendrickson replaces right-hander Wes Obermueller, who went 3-5 with a 6.69 ERA and was demoted to Triple-A. Because the Brewers are in a long stretch without a day off, Hendrickson will not have to worry about pitching on the irregular schedule that plagued Obermueller.
