A bruised right hand didn’t have any effect on Christian Yelich. The Milwaukee Brewers designated hitter — named the National League’s Player of the Week before the game against the Cincinnati Reds — was back in the lineup and continued his hot streak with a solo home run in the third inning to lift the Brewers to a 3-2 victory.

The Brewers try for their ninth straight win tonight as they again take on the Reds at Great American Ball Park.

Playing the day after a hand injury forced him out of the game, Christian Yelich slugs the game-winning homer in the third inning to beat the Reds.
