The Brewers placed outfielder/DH Christian Yelich on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left groin strain.

The three-time All-Star was removed in the fifth inning of Sunday's 8-6 loss to the visiting Washington Nationals.


Yelich, 34, is off to a solid start this season, batting .314 with one homer, 10 RBIs and three steals in 15 games.

Milwaukee called up infielder/outfielder Greg Jones from Triple-A Nashville. Left-hander Rob Zastryzny (shoulder/ribs) was transferred to the 60-day IL to make room for Jones on the 40-man roster.
