Robert Lewandowski was breaking records again Saturday as he reached a tally of 100 German top flight goals quicker than any foreign player.
The Pole notched the fastest ever hat-trick in Bundesliga history when scoring all five of Bayern Munich's goals in Wednesday's 5-1 drubbing of Wolfsburg.
And two more Lewandowski goals in Bayern's comfortable 3-0 win away to Mainz Saturday ensured he achieved a century of Bundesliga goals in just 168 appearances.
Lewandowski arrived in Munich on a free transfer from Borussia Dortmund in 2014 after scoring 74 goals in three years at the Westfalonstadion.
Saturday's strikes take him to 27 goals for Bayern. They also helped extend the Bavarian's 100% start to the season.
Pep Guardiola's side have now won seven league matches on the bounce and are five points clear of closest rivals Dortmund who play newly promoted Darmstadt on Sunday.
Elsewhere in Germany Saturday, Bayer Leverkusen picked up a valuable 3-1 win away to Werder Bremen to move into fifth position in the Bundesliga table.
Fourth placed Wolfsburg continued to struggle after Wednesday's defeat away to Bayern with a 1-1 draw at home with Hannover.
Hoffenheim won 3-1 away to Augsburg while Borussia Monchengladbach triumphed by the same score line at Stuttgart.
