MILWAUKEE (AP) — With every home run and big hit Clayton Kershaw Jersey , it’s getting more difficult for Christian Yelich to go out in Milwaukee without being recognized.It didn’t stop the potential National League MVP from making a run to the supermarket for groceries, so his mother could make his favorite dish when she recently visited.Taco night must go on for the Milwaukee Brewers‘ All-Star outfielder and his family.“So actually, he went to the market and bought everything. I sent him a list, so when I got there it was all ready to go and I just had to cook,” said his mother, Alicia Yelich.She said the increased attention isn’t going to her son’s head, even with a late-season push for the Triple Crown that fell just short.The spotlight will shine brighter on Thursday when Yelich makes his postseason debut when the Brewers host the Colorado Rockies in Game 1 of their National League Division Series.The 26-year-old Yelich is known for his humility and steady demeanor http://www.dodgersfanproshop.com/authentic-justin-turner-jersey , along with his talent at the plate. It’s a lesson handed down in the family.“I always say you’ve got to stay humble in life, right? The game is so hard that you really don’t know how your night is going to be,” Alicia Yelich said. “You can hit for the cycle or you get four (strikeouts). You’ve got to stay humble.”Yelich has hit for the cycle twice this year, the first major leaguer to do so in one season against the same team, the Cincinnati Reds.Last week against Detroit, Yelich made the first curtain call of his career after hitting his second home run to break a tie in the seventh inning of a 6-5 win.It was about as close as Yelich has come to showing emotion.“First one ever, so I don’t really know what to do Sandy Koufax Jersey ,” he said then.The loud fans at Miller Park chanted “MVP! MVP!” after the solo shot. He obliged with a brief appearance, lifting his helmet in the air about halfway up the dugout steps.“Everyone was yelling at me to get up there, so I went up there really quick and went right back down,” he said.Opponents are impressed by the demeanor, too. Rockies manager Bud Black got to talk to Yelich at the All-Star Game in July.“You can’t engage with everybody, but I found time to engage with him,” Black said Wednesday. “And what a nice kid — I mean http://www.dodgersfanproshop.com/authentic-yasiel-puig-jersey , really, really great to talk to, and really in a way humble and sort of shy, right?“That’s sort of how I got it. But what a great kid. So, I’m very happy for him,” Black said.Yelich hit an NL-best .326 to become the Brewers’ first batting champion. He finished tied for third in home runs (36) and tied for second in RBIs (110).He’s the favorite in the NL MVP race after batting .367 with 25 homers and 67 RBIs in 65 games after the All-Star break. His second-half surge is a big reason why the Brewers won the NL Central, making their first playoff appearance since 2011.Asked if success had changed her son Hyun-Jin Ryu Jersey , Alicia Yelich said, “Christian? No, no.”“He’s very even-keeled,” she said. “And being even-keeled helps to be successful at this game.” CHICAGO (AP) — The Milwaukee Brewers added bullpen help for the final stretch, acquiring veteran Xavier Cedeno from the Chicago White Sox for two minor leaguers on Friday.Cedeno is 2-0 with a 2.84 ERA in 33 appearances after signing with Chicago as a minor league free agent in January. The left-hander is 10-7 with a 3.81 ERA in eight seasons with Houston, Washington, Tampa Bay and the White Sox.“We’re just trying to fortify the roster as best we can and give ourselves options and depth for whatever happens in this month Jose Fernandez Jersey ,” Brewers manager Craig Counsell said.Later Friday, the Brewers added a lefty to their rotation, acquiring Gio Gonzalez from the Washington Nationals for two minor leaguers and international slot money.Milwaukee entered Friday holding the second NL wild card spot. The Brewers were third in the NL Central behind the Cubs and Cardinals.The White Sox got outfielder Bryan Connell and right-hander Johan Dominguez in the deal. They also purchased promising reliever Ian Hamilton’s contract from Triple-A Charlotte.The 23-year-old Hamilton had never pitched in the majors. He was a combined 3-2 with a 1.74 ERA in 43 appearances with Double-A Birmingham and Charlotte this season.The 19-year-old Connell batted .239 with seven home runs and 24 RBIs over 48 games with the between the Dominican Summer League Brewers and Advanced Rookie Helena. The 22-year-old Domínguez was 3-0 with a 0.82 ERA in 23 relief appearances with the Brewers’ Dominican summer and Arizona League teams as well as Helena.
