The Milwaukee Brewers announced a series of transactions on Aug. 22 with Joey Oritz going on the injured list and Jackson Chourio beginning a rehab assignment.

The Milwaukee Brewers placed starting shortstop Joey Ortiz on the 10-day injured list with a strained left hamstring on Friday. The first-place club reinstated outfielder Jake Bauers from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Joey Ortiz, who has provided the Brewers terrific defense at shortstop all season and lately some offense, too, left Game 2 of Tuesday’s doubleheader against the Cubs at Wrigley Field after fouling a pitch off his right knee in the seventh inning.
