Written by I Dig SportsNEW YORK -- Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich was scratched from Saturday's game against the New York Yankees because of lower back soreness.

Rookie Sal Frelick replaced the 2018 NL MVP ih in the leadoff spot for NL Central-leading Milwaukee, which won Friday's opener 8-2.
