Yelich is doing his best to show team leadership by standing behind his teammate with that Instagram post.

Cain had played in five games for Milwaukee, batting .333 on the season. He did not play on Wednesday, and then Friday and Saturday’s games were postponed after St. Louis Cardinals players tested positive for the coronavirus. Yelich is off to a 1-for-27 (.037) to start the season.
