Rickie Weeks had one of the best days of his 2012 season today, going 4-for-4 with a home run and getting hit by a pitch. It was only the third time all season a Brewer had reached base safely five times in a game, and the first time Ryan Braun wasn't the Brewer:
| Player | Date | Opponent | Line |
| Ryan Braun | May 11 | Cubs | 0-for-2, 4 BB, HBP |
| Ryan Braun | July 13 | Pirates | 4-for-4, 2 HR, BB |
| Rickie Weeks | July 25 | Phillies | 4-for-4, HR, HBP |
Weeks' line is interesting for another reason, though: This is only the eighth time in franchise history a player has both collected four hits and been hit by a pitch in the same game. Weeks is now the second player to do it twice:
| Player | Date | Opponent |
| Paul Molitor | June 14, 1992 | Mariners |
| Fernando Vina | April 16, 1998 | Expos |
| Geoff Jenkins | August 20, 2000 | Astros |
| Devon White | April 26, 2001 | Mets |
| Brady Clark | June 9, 2004 | Angels |
| Brady Clark | August 4, 2005 | Mets |
| Rickie Weeks | August 15, 2010 | Rockies |
| Rickie Weeks | Today | Phillies |
Weeks and Devon White are now the only players to have four hits, an HBP and a homer in the same game.
Amazingly, both of the Rickie Weeks games above were losses. The rest were all wins.
