ESPN MLB reports that NEW YORK -- The Yankees' days of carrying only left-handed-hitting catchers are over, at least for now.

Escarra to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre late Friday night after a 5-3 loss to the Boston Red Sox.

A corresponding move was not announced, but the Yankees plan on calling up right-handed-hitting catcher Ali Sánchez on Saturday, sources told ESPN.

Sánchez, 29, is batting .227 with six home runs and a .702 OPS in 40 games in Triple-A this season.

He has played in 50 games for five major league teams across four seasons.

Last season, he went 0-for-2 in two plate appearances across four games for the Red Sox.
