Brewers' Brice Turang: Sitting with ankle/foot issue
Rotowire
Turang is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox due to an ankle/foot injury, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
The second baseman has been playing through the injury for about a week, and the Brewers will take Tuesday's matchup against ace lefty Garrett Crochet as an opportunity to get Turang some rest. Milwaukee has a team day off Thursday after Wednesday's series finale in Boston, and it's possible Turang sits for a second straight game in order to string together three straight rest days and potentially get healthy. David Hamilton is manning the keystone Tuesday while Luis Rengifo starts at third base.

Turang (finger) will start at second base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.
Turang went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 14-0 win before being lifted in the bottom of the sixth inning for a pinch hitter while he tended to a pinkie injury.
