In Game 1 of the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs' NLDS matchup, 21-year-old Jackson Chourio set the tone for Milwaukee right away. Moments after a Michael Busch leadoff home run gave Chicago a 1-0 lead, Chourio doubled off of Matthew Boyd, and the Brewers never looked back.
After Chourio's leadoff double, Brice Turang and William Contreras slugged doubles of their own, giving the Brewers an early lead before they ultimately plated six runs in the first inning and three more in the second. With Chourio batting leadoff, he received two at-bats in the first inning and another in the second, collecting hits in all three, which has never been done before in the history of MLB's postseason, as reported by Sarah Langs on the social media platform X.
