Before Sunday's Brewers On-Deck event Christian Yelich took a minor detour to New York to accept his National League MVP award.
In his acceptance speech, Yelich recalls the time he was flying home on a plane with “Brewers royalty” wondering how he was a member of the Marlins just 2 days prior.
Now almost a year ago to the day, Yelich finds himself on a championship contending team and his trophy case full.
