Left-fielder Ryan Braun left Saturday evening’s game against Washington early, complaining of tightness in his lower back.

Alex’s Take:

This could be very, very, very bad news for the Brewers should Braun miss extended time.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed for now.

Welcome to a brand new Milwaukee Brewers Baseball Blog!  BrewersHomePlate will be blogging about everything involving the Milwaukee Brewers.  We will have game reviews posts after each game is played, articles about Brewers trades and rumors, and give you great opportunityes at Brewers tickets and merchandise!

Last year the Brew Crew came up just short of winning the National League Central Division as they finished two games behind their rivals to the South the Chicago Cubs.  This year, the Brewers are hoping to be in contention, and finish up on top and make it into the post season.  They could just be the next Colorado Rockies and suprise everyone while ending up in the World Series!

We hope you enjoy your time here at BrewersHomePlate, and hope you come back everyday.  We also encourage you to leave comments and take part in our discussion about the Milwaukee Brewers!
