The Brewers also named infielder Jesús Made as Complex League Player of the Month and right-handed pitcher Joshua Quezada as Complex League Pitcher of the Month.

Bitonti, 18, was promoted from the Rookie Arizona Complex League Brewers to Class-A Carolina on July 29. He hit a Carolina League-leading 7 HR in 21 games with the Mudcats in August. He also led the league in RBI (21) and ranked among leaders in slugging percentage (2nd, .494), total bases (3rd, 43) and extra-base hits (T3rd, 11).

Selected by Milwaukee in the third round of the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, Bitonti hit a pair of home runs on Aug. 2 vs. Charleston and again on Aug. 7 at Fredericksburg.
