Brewers’ Yelich put on 10-day injured list with sore back

<p>MILWAUKEE &mdash; Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich, who has missed four straight games because of a sore back, was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday.</p>
<p>“There’s nothing new, nothing to add," manager Craig Counsell said. "That’s what it is. We’ll take a couple more days without baseball activities and see where that leaves us.”</p>
<p>The Brewers didn’t announce a corresponding roster move.</p>
<p>Yelich, the 2018 NL MVP, is hitting .333 with no home runs and 1 RBI.</p>
<p>Two other Brewers starters, second baseman Kolten Wong and outfielder Lorenzo Cain, are also on the injured list, weakening the offense.</p>
<p>“We’ll just have to fill in around them until those guys get back. We’re not expecting this to be long term,” Counsell said.</p>
<p>The Brewers host the Pirates on Saturday in the second game of a three-game series. Pittsburgh won 6-1 on Friday.</p>
