Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to inflammation in his lower back.
The Brewers announced the roster move on Wednesday. Yelich left Tuesday's win over the Chicago Cubs in the sixth inning after running gingerly to first base on a groundout.
