Jun 1, 2025; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (22) reacts after being hit boy a pitch during the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. Mandatory Credit: Eric Hartline-Imagn Images After getting hit by a pitch in the first inning of Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies, the Milwaukee Brewers’ Christian Yelich was later removed due to a “right hand contusion.”
Yelich, who served as the Brewers’ designated hitter, stayed in the game to run in the first. But when his spot in the order came around again in the third, Eric Haase batted for him.
Yelich had been one of the hottest hitters in the major leagues prior to being hit by Phillies starter Ranger Suarez. Over his previous eight games, the 33-year-old outfielder had gone 17 of 36 (.472) with five homers, 10 runs, 13 RBIs and two steals.
That spree, which included a walk-off grand slam May 27 against the Boston Red Sox, boosted Yelich’s slash line from .184/.276/.324 to .233/.314/.423.
With his 12 homers and 10 stolen bases, Yelich was one of 11 big-league players with double digits in homers and steals — joining the Los Angeles Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani, Arizona’s Corbin Carroll, the Chicago Cubs’ Pete Crow-Armstrong and Kyle Tucker, Pittsburgh’s Oneil Cruz, Cincinnati’s Elly De La Cruz, Cleveland’s Jose Ramirez, San Diego’s Fernando Tatis Jr., the New York Mets’ Francisco Lindor and Texas’ Wyatt Langford.
The Brewers announced Yelich’s hand contusion midgame, and didn’t immediately say whether Yelich will need a stint on the 10-day injured list.
