He was named National League Player of the Week by Major League Baseball.

Steer batted .409 with three home runs, nine RBIs, scored five runs, and three walks, and had a double and triple last week.

He hit a three-run homer to tie the game against the Washington Nationals on March 31 and followed up that with a 10th-inning grand slam at Philadelphia.

Steer put the Reds ahead for good in the eighth against the New York Mets on Saturday with a three-run shot.

He is currently tied for third in the majors with five extra-base hits.

Steer drove in two runs Monday night in the Reds’ 10-8 victory over Milwaukee at Great American Ball Park.

Cincinnati is 6-4 to start the season and will host the Brewers tonight at 6:40 p.m.
