Koenig is expected to serve as the Brewers' opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Koenig experienced success while opening a game for the third time this season in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Phillies. He needed just five pitches to retire the side in the bottom of the first inning before he turned the game over to bulk reliever Bryse Wilson. The Brewers will likely call on Koenig again Tuesday with the hope that he can get through the top three batters in Philadelphia's lineup before he hands the ball to bulk reliever Colin Rea.
