Christian Yelich might have finally found his swagger for the baseball season. Yelich had a rough start to the season with a back injury, COVID, and just plan badness. It got to the point where Mitch & I asked on Tapping The Keg Podcast, what’s wrong with Yelich and did a long segment on Yelich’s struggles. Well, whatever happened then is over now. Yelich is red hot. The grand slam on Saturday afternoon was so awesome. I spent the afternoon drinking beers and eating wings with my guy Doz at Olyida’s (Underrated wing spot) and I jumped out of my bar seat for that one. He got all over it and then some. To me, that was the moment when we all should realize that Christian Yelich is back, baby.

Christian Yelich is 2-for-5 today and hitting .355 (16-for-45) with five extra-base hits and 10 RBIs in his last 11 games.

Yelich might be fully healed from the back injury that plagued him earlier in the year. Now, backs are always a tough thing, right. They can bark at you at any moment. It could have been something where Yelich found the right training regime to keep it healthy, and now he’s golden.

If you’re Cincinnati, this has to be a little frightening for you, no? Reds know how big this series is for them, but they have to deal with a red-hot Yelich. On top of having to face Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff in the first two games of the season
