PHILADELPHIA — Milwaukee Brewers designated hitter Christian Yelich left Sunday’s 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies after being hit by a pitch in the first inning.

Yelich suffered a right hand contusion, the Brewers announced. X-rays after the game on the hand were negative. Yelich said there was swelling on the hand and he is expected to be day-to-day going forward.

Yelich was hit by a 90 mph sinker from Ranger Suarez. He remained in the game but was lifted for pinch hitter Eric Haase in the third.

“He got me pretty good. Hit the knob a little, just crushed the bottom of my hand also,” Yelich said after the game. “Is what it is, this stuff happens. Just [swelled] up and made it tough to grip the bat.”

Yelich is batting .233 this season with a team-leading 12 home runs and 39 RBIs. He had four hits in Saturday’s 17-7 win over the Phillies and homered twice Friday night.

Yelich missed 81 games last season because of a lower back injury.
