The Milwaukee Brewers have placed All-Star pitcher Jacob Misiorowski on the 15-day injured list with a left tibia contusion.
The rookie was scheduled to start for the Brewers on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. Logan Henderson was called up from Triple-A Nashville to pitch in his place.

Misiorowski sustained the injury during Monday’s 8-4 win over the Chicago Cubs when he was hit by a comebacker from Seiya Suzuki in the first inning. He stayed in the game and eventually pitched four innings, allowing two runs and three hits with two walks and seven strikeouts on 80 pitches.
In an earlier stint this season with Milwaukee, Henderson registered a 1.71 ERA and 3-0 record in four starts with 29 strikeouts in 21 innings. At Triple-A, he compiled a 3.59 ERA and 10-4 record while averaging 10.1 strikeouts per nine innings in 16 appearances (15 starts).
