MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee Brewers rookie center fielder Garrett Mitchell returned to the lineup after a quicker-than-anticipated recovery from an early-season shoulder injury. The 24-year-old hurt his left shoulder while sliding into third base in the 10th inning of a 6-5, 11-inning victory at Seattle on April 18. He underwent surgery in May to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. Mitchell was batting .259 with a .307 on-base percentage, .466 slugging percentage, three homers, six RBIs and one steal in 16 games before the injury. Infielder/outfielder Brian Anderson was designated for assignment.
