Christian Yelich joined elite company after hitting a home run in each of his team's first four games to start the season.
With a homer in during the Brewers' game Sunday against the Cardinals, Yelich became just the sixth MLB player to hit a home run in each of his team’s first four games.

Yelich's homer gave Milwaukee a quick 1-0 lead over the Cardinals in the first inning.
Yelich has a chance to extend his streak Monday when Milwaukee faces the Reds, and if he does, he will become the only player in MLB history to have homered in each of his club's first five games.
