San Francisco Giants will be without Casey Schmitt after the infielder experienced knee pain during a 3-0 win against the Milwaukee Brewers at Oracle Park on Monday, July 27.

The team announced Tuesday, July 28 that Schmitt was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left meniscus tear. He underwent an MRI exam Tuesday and imaging results determined the injury.

The 27-year-old suffered the injury early in Monday night's game against the Brewers. Schmitt led off the bottom second inning with a fly ball single to right field. He rounded first base in an attempt to stride for second, but hit the brakes and turned around as the Brewers put the ball back infield. When Schmitt slowed down to reverse back to first base, he seemingly tweaked his knee as he hobbled to the bag.
