Brewers first baseman Rowdy Tellez hit .321 with three home runs and 12 RBI last week.

CINCINNATI – For the first time in his major league career, Rowdy Tellez plays first base every day.

And so far, he’s made the most of his opportunity, hitting .258 with seven home runs while leading the Milwaukee Brewers with 24 RBIs and an .887 OPS.

“The players earn it,” manager Craig Counsell said before his team’s series opener against the Cincinnati Reds on Monday night at Great American Ball Park. “That’s something you have to earn.”

Tellez also earned a major honor Monday, being named the NL Player of the Week after hitting .321 with three home runs, 12 RBIs and a 1.107 OPS to help the Brewers to a 4-2 record. .
