MILWAUKEE ¡ª Lorenzo Cain won¡¯t be available Wednesday when the Milwaukee Brewers wrap up a two-game interleague series with the Kansas City Royals at Miller Park.

The Brewers had hoped that by resting Cain on Sunday against St. Louis ahead of a team off-day Monday Authentic Da'Ron Payne Jersey , the veteran center fielder would be ready to return to action against his former team.

Instead, they¡¯ll go at least another week without him after placing on the disabled list with a strained groin.

¡°After going through treatment the last couple of days, he¡¯s unable to play,¡± manager Craig Counsell said. ¡°We think it¡¯s mild and it¡¯s going to be a short stay (on the DL) but we just didn¡¯t think it was worth waiting three or four days to see if he¡¯s ready to go.

¡°He¡¯s only out for eight days, after missing two already, then we¡¯ll reassess. We¡¯re hoping it¡¯s on the short end.¡±

Even if it¡¯s a short stay, the loss is a big one for the Brewers, who signed Cain to a five-year $80 million contract this winter. He¡¯s been a force atop the Brewers¡¯ lineup, batting .291 with eight home runs and 26 RBIs while posting a .394 on-base percentage and .832 OPS.

¡°He¡¯s a good player; he¡¯s having a great season,¡± Counsell said. ¡°But this is part of a baseball season. We have to be equipped to handle losses. I think we are. It¡¯s been a strength of this team so far and how we¡¯ve gotten to this point.¡±

With Cain out, the Brewers recalled outfielder Keon Broxton from Colorado Springs.

Broxton is expected to join the team Wednesday. It will mark the first big league appearance of the season for Broxton, who hit 20 home runs with 21 stolen bases in 143 games for Milwaukee last season but became the odd man out after Cain and Christian Yelich were acquired over the offseason.

¡°He¡¯s been swinging the bat pretty well lately,¡± Counsell said of Broxton, who was batting .263 with nine home runs and 35 RBIs at Colorado Springs.

Counsell said Travis Shaw will likely sit out again Wednesday, too. He¡¯s been dealing with a sore wrist for much of the last two weeks and left Milwaukee¡¯s game Sunday after aggravating the injury during a third-inning at-bat against St. Louis.

¡°I think Travis is going to be OK Authentic Derrius Guice Jersey ,¡± Counsell said. ¡°We¡¯re hoping to avoid a DL stint. The tricky part is if we can get past it. If we don¡¯t think we¡¯re going to get past it, we¡¯ll have to talk about the disabled list with him as well.

¡°He¡¯s much better than he was yesterday and Sunday. So, I think we¡¯re going in the right direction. There¡¯s nothing structural in there. It¡¯s a wrist strain. Hopefully, he¡¯ll be all right.¡±

Brent Suter (8-4, 4.15 ERA) will start for Milwaukee, looking for his fourth consecutive victory. The left-hander has been superb during his winning streak, posting a 2.84 ERA while holding batters to a .185 average and a .551 OPS.

Suter¡¯s been no slouch at the plate, himself this season. He is 5-for-14 over his last nine starts with a home run, three walks and three RBIs.

¡°I love hitting,¡± Suter said. I¡¯ve loved it my whole life. Even when I¡¯m struggling, I still like going up there and trying to whack it. It¡¯s one of my favorite parts besides pitching in the game.¡±

He¡¯s had more opportunity to step into the box lately because he¡¯s been working significantly deeper into games. Suter worked through the seventh in each of his last two starts.

¡°It¡¯s something I trained for in the offseason so to see it be able to come to fruition the last couple starts feels good,¡± Suter said.

Suter has never faced the Royals.

Left-hander Danny Duffy will start for Kansas City. He held the Astros scoreless on two hits over six innings in his last outing but took no-decision as the Royals rallied late for a 1-0 victory.

It was a rare bright spot in what¡¯s been a painful month for the Royals, who are 4-19 since June 1 and have lost 12 of their last 14 games ¡ª six by four or more runs.

¡°We¡¯re all frustrated,¡± Yost said. ¡°I¡¯ve never seen anything like it. I¡¯ve never been a part of a month like this. An offensive drought like we¡¯ve had all month long is pretty puzzling. There¡¯s no answer for it.¡±

Something about the big moments brings out the best in Mitch Haniger.

His two-run home run in the ninth on Wednesday, after a stellar defensive play in the top of the inning Authentic Justin Bethel Jersey , gave the Seattle Mariners an 8-6 victory and sweep of the three-game series over the Los Angeles Angels.

¡±We have such a powerful lineup,¡± Haniger said. ¡±On any given night it can be somebody else and that¡¯s kind of the vibe. There¡¯s no panic.¡±

Haniger, who has 16 home runs this season and 52 RBIs, has an MLB-best 11 game-winning hits ¨C including his second game-ending homer on Wednesday.

After Jean Segura singled to center off reliever Oliver Drake (0-1), Haniger sent a pitch over the left-field wall off to end it.

Nelson Cruz and Ryon Healy also homered for Seattle, and Healy¡¯s upper-deck shot in the eighth inning tied the game at 6-6. Cruz hit a two-run homer in the second inning, his fourth in his last five games and 16th of the season.

The home run by Haniger, who was 2-for-5 and scored two runs, was his second big play of the ninth inning. He also made an outstanding defensive play in right field for the second consecutive game.

With one out and a runner at first, Martin Maldonado hit fly ball to deep right that was tailing away from Haniger. However, he raced to make the catch before throwing it on the fly to Healy in the infield. Healy ran to first to double off Jabari Blash, who was pinch running for Albert Pujols.

The Mariners have won six of their last seven games and 11 of their last 13. Roenis Elias (2-0) earned the win with two scoreless innings of relief, and Seattle starter Marco Gonzales allowed seven hits and three runs in five innings.

Wednesday¡¯s game had plenty of drama ¨C including two times when the game was tied and two lead changes.

¡±I don¡¯t know where to start with this game,¡± said Seattle manager Scott Servais. ¡±It had a little bit of everything in it.¡±

Seattle built a 4-1 lead in the third inning and led 4-3 before the Angels came back to tie it in sixth inning on a sacrifice fly by Luis Valbuena. Home runs by Nolan Fontana and Chris Young gave the Angels a 6-4 lead in the seventh.

The Angels had won six consecutive games before coming to Seattle.

¡±It says a lot the way our guys came back,¡± Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia said. ¡±But unfortunately it was one of those days when our bullpen was stretched a bit after having to use them a lot Authentic Logan Paulsen Jersey , and we couldn¡¯t get it done at the end.¡±

INJURED ANGELS

Angels starting pitcher Garrett Richards left the game after two innings because of tightness in his left hamstring. Shortstop Zack Cozart left the game in the fourth inning because of a left shoulder strain.

SEAGER SCRATCHED

Seattle third baseman Kyle Seager was a late scratch from the starting lineup Wednesday, but he is not injured. Mariners officials said it was a personal issue, and Andrew Romine started at third in his place.

SERVAIS¡¯ NEW LOOK

Before the season started, Servais said he would get a haircut just like Edwin Diaz if the closer reached 50 saves this season. Diaz, who has a Z-like symbol shaved into the left side of his head, already has an MLB-best 25 saves this season and is on pace to reach 55 saves. ¡±I¡¯m aware,¡± Servais said. ¡±I¡¯m already talking to barbers. I¡¯m OK with that.¡±

TRAINER¡¯S ROOM

Angels: OF Kole Calhoun (oblique strain) started a rehab assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

Mariners: RHP Nick Vincent (groin strain) and RHP Juan Nicasio (knee swelling) both are expected to throw in the bullpen Friday on Saturday. Servais said he hopes both relievers can come of the 10-day DL by the middle up the upcoming 10-day road trip that starts in New York against the Yankees on June 19.

UP NEXT

Angels: LHP Tyler Skaggs (5-4, 3.08) tries to continue his June hot streak when the Angels play the Athletics on Friday in Oakland. Skaggs is 2-0 with a 0.69 ERA in his previous two starts this month. Trevor Cahill (1-2, 2.27) is expected to start for Oakland.

Mariners: Felix Hernandez (6-5, 5.70) is on the mound to start a four-game home series against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. Hernandez is coming off his shortest outing of the season when he took the loss at Tampa Bay, allowing five earned runs on seven hits in the 7-3 loss. David Price (7-4, 4.00) is the expected starter for Boston.
