The Milwaukee Brewers have a problem at first base. With Daniel Vogelbach‘s injury, they have no other choice but to bring back up Keston Hiura.

When Vogelbach came up lame running around third in Tuesday night’s game, everyone knew in the back of their mind what it meant: The Brewers would need to call back up Keston Hiura.

Hiura has struggled all season long in the big leagues, and his second demotion to Triple-A was expected to last at least a month.
