Ryan Braun missing exhibition games in Montreal due to passport
Ryan Braun is not participating in two games against the Toronto Blue Jays this week due to his passport.
The Milwaukee Brewers are in Montreal this week for exhibition games against the Jays on Monday and Tuesday. Braun is not with them because he did not have his passport, which prevents him from traveling to Canada.
The #Brewers will be without Ryan Braun for the two games in Montreal against the Blue Jays. Sounds like he thought he had his passport with him but turns out he didn't. So, couldn't come to Canada.

Not surprisingly, this sort of thing does happen on occasion with professional athletes. Thankfully for the Brewers, they do not have any games on their regular season schedule outside of the United States.
Braun is preparing for his 13th major league season, all with the Brewers. In 125 games last year, Braun hit .254/.313/.469 with 20 home runs and 64 RBIs.
