Brewers could be without Braun against Phillies

MILWAUKEE -- Ryan Braun may not be in the Milwaukee Brewers' lineup on Sunday afternoon when they go for a three-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies at Miller Park.

The veteran left fielder is a prime candidate for a day off as Milwaukee plays a day game after a night game, but the team is also taking a cautious approach with Braun, who will be considered day to day for the remainder of the season because of a nagging left calf injury, manager Craig Counsell said.

Braun has spent two different stretches on the disabled list because of the issue this season, missing all of May because of it.
