The Brewers placed Bauers on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left shoulder impingement. Bauers had started two of Milwaukee's previous three games, but he'll now be out of action for at least 10 days due to the shoulder injury.

The Brewers announced that first baseman/outfielder Jake Bauers has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a left shoulder impingement. Infielder Tyler Black has been called up from Triple-A to take Bauers’ spot on the active roster.

The Milwaukee Brewers found themselves in the middle of playoff positioning, riding the momentum of a strong first half and the electric play of Sal Frelick, when reality hit hard: their leadoff man and Gold Glove right fielder exited with a hamstring injury during a crucial July series.

If the young outfielder misses time, it would severely hurt the Brewers, who enter a pivotal series against the Los Angeles Dodgers after the All-Star break. Milwaukee entered the break on a seven-game win streak, improving to 56–40, just a game behind the Chicago Cubs for first in the NL Central.

BOTTOM LINE: The Los Angeles Dodgers aim to end their five-game home losing streak with a win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Los Angeles has gone 33-19 in home games and 58-41 overall. The Dodgers have a 39-16 record in games when they record at least eight hits.
