Milwaukee -- Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Corey Hart has signed a 3-year contract extension, the team said Monday.

Hart will be paid $26.5 million through the 2013 season -- $6.5 million in 2011, $9 million in 2012 and $10 million in the last year of the deal - the Brewers' official Web site reported.

The deal includes a $1 million signing bonus and eliminates Hart's final year of arbitration eligibility.

Hart is having his best year as a pro, batting .288 with 23 homers and 72 RBI in 92 games. He was named to the all-star team this summer, his second such selection.
