Brice Turang -- Injury Report
Injury Report sources for Brice Turang of the Milwaukee Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang was scratched from Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals due to illness, moments before first pitch. The 26-year-old was originally listed as the leadoff hitter and had been instrumental to the Brewers' season performance. Through 30 games, Turang has compiled a .291 batting average with a .918 OPS, 4 home runs and 20 RBIs, while maintaining elite defensive standards as a Gold and Platinum Glove winner. Luis Rengifo entered in his place, shifting to third base with David Hamilton assuming second base duties. The Brewers are already dealing with significant roster challenges, having lost outfielder Jackson Chourio for the entire season and currently having Andrew Vaughn and Christian Yelich on the injured list. The team was seeking to extend a three-game winning streak without one of its most productive players available. Turang is expected to be eligible to return Monday for the series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals.
