Christian Yelich is tormenting the St. Louis Cardinals with unprecedented regularity this season, and the team’s TV broadcast is running out of ways to try to strategize against him.
The Milwaukee Brewers’ MVP outfielder came into Wednesday’s game having homered in all six games against the Cardinals this season, including a three-homer game on Monday. Yelich is hitting .524 against the Redbirds with a 1.714 slugging percentage.
The team’s broadcast was pretty much out of ideas, but put forth a very simple key to the game during Wednesday’s broadcast.

One of Yelich’s teammates has compared him to Barry Bonds at his most fearsome. To the Cardinals, he’s even worse than that, and they must feel like they have no idea what to do against him.
