Ryan Braun: (Back) Returns to Lineup

Braun is back in the lineup Thursday.

Analysis:

Braun was a late scratch Wednesday with tightness in his back, but that ailment won't keep him out of the lineup for a second straight day. He's been on a tear of late, slashing .408/.482/.551 in 49 September at-bats, and will look to keep that trend in his return to the middle of the Milwaukee order.
