The best run of Jeromy Burnitz’ career was the five years and change (1996-2001) he spent as a Milwaukee Brewer.  Burnitz would smack 30 Home Runs four years in a row, earning MVP votes in two of them, and going to the All-Star Game in one.  He would hit 165 Home Runs as a Brewer and was one of the few highlights on Brewers teams that were generally not very good.

With Milwaukee, Burnitz had 165 Home Runs, 714 Hits with a .258 Batting Average.
