Ryan Braun Getting Wednesday Off
4 years agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (back) is not in the lineup on Wednesday. Manager Craig Counsell stated that Braun would need a day off this week to rest his back. Dan Vogelbach is getting the start at designated hitter in the game with Jace Peterson in right field. Braun has been surprisingly productive in September, slashing .340/.373/.745 with five home runs and 16 RBI. He slashed just .170/.228/.358 with only two home runs in August. Expect to see him back in the lineup when the Brewers open up a five-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday.
