Rowdy Tellez's Finger Injury Extends Absence
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rowdy Tellez suffered a finger injury in a "freak accident" while shagging fly balls during batting practice. Tellez got his finger stuck in the outfield wall, tearing off the nail bed and fracturing the end of his ring finger. He required 17 stitches and will be sidelined for two to three weeks, delaying his return from the injured list. The Brewers have been using utility man Owen Miller at first base in Tellez's absence, but may consider adding depth to the position.
