Yelich was slated to lead off before the two-time All-Star was dropped from the starting lineup about 10 minutes before first pitch.
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.
Yelich is batting .274 with 17 homers and 70 RBI in 136 games this season. He is 2 for 14 on Milwaukee’s trip.
