Brewers' Playoff Hopes in Jeopardy as Quintana Suffers Calf Injury
  • Milwaukee Brewers pitcher José Quintana injured his calf during a game against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday after pitching four innings in a 3-2 loss.

  • The 36-year-old left-hander has an 11-7 record with a 3.96 ERA in 24 starts this season, having previously posted a 10-10 record with a 3.75 ERA for the New York Mets last year.

  • Quintana was seen leaving the game in a boot and is undergoing an MRI, raising concerns given the team's existing injury issues in the bullpen and on the mound.

  • The injury occurred while Quintana was covering first base during a play involving a grounder that bounced off the first baseman, Jake Bauers, near the foul line.

  • The Brewers, NL Central leaders who clinched a playoff spot the day before, are already dealing with multiple injured pitchers, including All-Star closer Trevor Megill and others.
