On May 2, Bernier tied a modern major league record with three triples in a game,[4] becoming the 15th player to perform this feat in the post-Deadball era, and the first since Ben Chapman in 1939,[5] as well the first National League player since Lance Richbourg in 1929.[4]

In 1989, Bernier committed suicide by hanging.[6]
