Last call

• Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy's absence from Tuesday's starting lineup was no cause for concern, Roenicke said. Lucroy was due a day off after starting every game since May 13.

"I've been keeping him in there because I really thought we need him in there," Roenicke said. "It just got to a point where we had to do it. To pick between now and the next two nights, now seemed to be the day to do it. I don't want to do it, but he needs to."
