Milwaukee Brewers Christian Yelich is just the 49th player in MLB history to become a member of the 200 home runs, 200 stolen bases, and 300 doubles club.
Per Mike Vassalo Yelich is the 49th player to ever become a member of the 200 home runs, 200 stolen bases, and 300 doubles club. He also joined Jose Ramirez as the only other player to reach all three milestones in the same season.
With his 3rd-inning stolen base, Christian Yelich is the 49th player (5th active) with 200 HR, 200 SB and 300 doubles in a career.
