Outfielder Christian Yelich missed Sunday's game with back pain, a lingering injury that kept him out of Saturday's game and other contests throughout his career. Plus notes on Giancarlo Stanton, Ichiro Suzuki, and more.
Christian Yelich is still dealing with back pain, and that is the reason he was out of the lineup for Sunday's game, as well as Saturday's. Although he is currently only listed as day-to-day, Yelich has had a history dealing with his back, as he hit the shelf with a lower back strain in the first portion of the 2014 and 2015 seasons.
