Add another accolade onto Christian Yelich’s MVP resume.

For the third time this season, the Milwaukee Brewers outfielder has been named the National League Player of the Week (Sept. 17-23), MLB announced Monday.

Over the seven-day span, Yelich played six games and mashed two homers, four doubles and one triple while compiling seven RBI, three walks and a .545/.615/1.091 slash line. He became the first player in MLB history to record two cycles against the same team with a 4-for-4 performance against Cincinnati on Sept. 17 at Miller Park.

Yelich, who also took home the honor Sept. 2 and July 29, is the only player in baseball to earn three weekly awards this season.
