    Ryan Braun isn't sure when he'll return to the Milwaukee Brewers' lineup but he was thankful to learn that his calf injury shouldn't be a long-term injury, according to the results of an MRI exam he took Wednesday.

    The left fielder told reporters that the MRI revealed there was no structural damage in his leg -- just inflammation. He missed his fourth consecutive game Wednesday.

    "They said the only thing that could have been better was if it was more in the muscle. It's kind of more hamstring than calf. It's in a tendon behind my knee that's in between the calf and the hamstring. It doesn't get as much blood flow as a muscle does," Braun told reporters, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
