Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Joe Ross was placed on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday because of a low back strain. The Brewers ended up using seven relievers and lost 3-2 in 10 innings. "Definitely frustrating - I felt I was throwing well," Ross said Tuesday. The 31-year-old Ross is in his first year with the Brewers after five seasons with the Washington Nationals, where he alternated between starting and relief roles.
One of the best teams in the National League takes on the worst when the Milwaukee Brewers visit the Miami Marlins to open a three-game series on Monday night. While both teams are coming off losses, the cellar-dwelling Marlins are riding short-term momentum, having taken two of three from the visiting New York Mets. Miami has won five of its past seven games. The Marlins' chances to sweep the series against New York were sabotaged early when starter Sixto Sanchez gave up four runs in the first on Sunday before settling down to finish four innings.
Sal Frelick homered for the first time this season, Joe Ross and three relievers combined on a three-hitter, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3 on Tuesday night. Pittsburgh’s Nick Gonzales hit his first homer of the year, and Connor Joe also went deep for the Pirates. Gonzales' last homer was July 2, and Frelick hadn’t homered since Aug. 7.
