Two-time All-Star Lucroy, 30, is batting .300 with 13 home runs and 50 RBI this season.
Earlier on Saturday, Lucroy was removed from the Brewers' starting lineup against the Pittsburgh Pirates. "I'm not playing today," Lucroy said, via the Associated Press. "I'm sure it has something to do with things that are going on."
