Milwaukee Brewers rookie outfielder <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-jackson-chourio-makes-mlb-playoffs-history-game-2-mets">Jackson Chourio delivered not once but twice</a> during Milwaukee’s Game 2 win over the New York Mets in the NL Wild Card Series. It was incredible to watch as the 20-year-old seized the opportunity in the biggest at-bats of the season.</p><p>Chourio launched a solo home run to lead off the bottom of the first inning, tying the game after the Mets scored in the opening frame. He then started the bottom of the eighth with another homer, tying the game at three and sparking a three-run inning for the Brewers.</p><p>The moment wasn’t too much for Chourio, who’s lived with lofty expectations all season. He’s lived up to the hype every step of the way.</p><p>“I think the adrenaline is still getting to me,” Chourio said <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/41578952/garrett-mitchell-tiebreaking-hr-puts-brewers-mets" rel="noopener">through an interpreter</a>, per Bradford Doolittle of ESPN. “It was a very special moment for me, and it’s one I’m going to look back on and remember for the rest of my life.”</p><p>Chourio recorded two hits in his playoff debut in the two-hole Tuesday, scoring once and driving in a run in an 8-4 Brewers loss. He was lifted to the top of the order in Game 2. He’ll probably stay there after becoming the second-youngest player in MLB history with multiple home runs in a playoff game.</p><h2><b>Youngsters deliver for Brewers in must-win scenario</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Jackson-Chourio-Brewers.jpg"><figcaption>Mark Hoffman / Milwaukee Journal Sentinel / USA TODAY NETWORK</figcaption></figure><p>The Wild Card Series is tricky to navigate, especially for the team that loses Game 1. The Brewers had their backs to the wall in an elimination game. It was players without experience in the MLB playoffs who carried them to a victory.</p><p>Garrett Mitchell entered the game as a pinch runner and earned an at-bat in the eighth inning. The third-year pro hit a go-ahead home run, his first playoff hit, to send the Brewers to a Game 3. 24-year-old Brice Turang has five hits in two games, three of them doubles, and three runs scored.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-playoff-hero-garrett-mitchell-message-fans-game-3">Milwaukee’s young core</a> is <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5814611/2024/10/03/brewers-wild-card-win-chourio-mitchell/" rel="noopener">making an impact</a> as a whole, but it starts and ends with Chourio. His Game 2 heroics could be just the beginning of a portfolio of memorable playoff moments.</p><p>“He’s unbelievable, man,” Brewers shortstop Willy Adames said, per Tyler Kepner of The Athletic. “That guy’s crazy. We just told him, I said, ‘Man, I’m proud of you, the way that you’re showing up this postseason. Twenty years old, you’re a kid, and you’re going out there and performing when we need you the most.’ That’s something — I think he was just born with it.”</p><p>Jackson Chourio’s bat was enough to propel the Brewers to one playoff victory but they are in the same spot they were Wednesday entering Game 3 Thursday. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-rhys-hoskins-100-real-what-need-avoid-elimination">Milwaukee faces elimination</a> at home and will want to get off to a good start after trailing early in the series’ first two games.</p><p>Perhaps Jackson Chourio can help the cause and replicate what he did at the plate in Game 2. If the Brewers stay in it, the MLB playoffs could quickly become the Chourio Show.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Jackson Chourio is not the Brewers’ leadoff man but was the first to hit in the bottom of the ninth Wednesday. Who knows how the game would have concluded had Chourio’s at-bat gone differently.</p><p>Chourio laced a triple, his fourth of the season, to immediately put the Brewers in an advantageous position. A few walks and a strikeout later, Chourio crossed home plate as the winning run on a Jake Bauers single.</p><p>It was the latest in a long string of clutch moments for Chourio this season. His teammates recognize how great the rookie is.</p><p>“What a player. I don’t think anybody is surprised after watching what he’s been able to do this whole year,” Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins <a href="https://x.com/MLBNetwork/status/1836602865655365967" rel="noopener">said</a>, per MLB Network. “This guy just eats up the moment. He did it again tonight.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-jackson-chourio-surpasses-legends-historic-feat">Jackson Chourio is just beginning</a> what many hope to be a long and illustrious career.

He now writes about sports instead as a form of therapy.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">MLB</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>The Milwaukee Brewers currently have a 10-game lead over the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central standings with 12 games remaining in the season. Suffice to say, the Brewers are well on their way to capturing the division title for the second year in a row despite all the changes the team has gone through over the past year. And one catalyst behind the Brewers’ continued dominance over the division has been the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-jackson-chourio-goes-viral-breaking-scoreboard-monster-homer">play of rookie outfielder Jackson Chourio</a>, the 20-year-old who has given Milwaukee some incredible all-around play.</p><p>However, Chourio didn’t exactly have the easiest time transitioning to the big-leagues despite all the hype surrounding him as a prospect who signed an eight-year, $82 million deal. The 20-year-old put up an OPS of .582 for the first two months of his big-league career, while having an inordinately high strikeout rate.</p><p>Veteran shortstop Willy Adames and the Brewers, at first, felt as though it would be best if they let Chourio take his lumps, as they believed that the youngster will waste no time learning from his mistakes. However, Adames revealed that they soon felt like <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2024/09/17/jackson-chourio-miwaukee-brewers-nl-central-clinch/75258035007/" rel="noopener">some words of encouragement</a> would go a long way towards helping Chourio get back on track — which he did and he hasn’t looked back since.</p><p>“At the beginning, we kind of wanted him to figure it out on his own. Then, when he kept struggling, we said, ‘OK now we have to help him.’ We said, ‘Don’t worry. Things are going to be fine. Things are going to be great in September.’ Then, he started to pick it up, got hot, and he hasn’t stopped,” Adames said, per Bob Nightengale of USA Today.</p><p>“Now it’s like, holy smokes. This guy is the real deal. He’s showing the world what type of player he is because I’m sure people were doubting him in the beginning.”</p><h2>Jackson Chourio delivers on the hype for the Brewers</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Jackson-Chourio-with-Milwaukee-Brewers.jpg"></figure><p>Not everyone is built to carry the weight of expectations. For a while, it seemed as though Jackson Chourio was going to wilt under the pressure. Even Chourio’s Brewers teammates saw how much the early-season struggles weighed on the 20-year-old outfielder.</p><p>“When you have a tough start, it’s tough for anybody, especially for him being 20 years old and learning the game in the big leagues for the first time. It was super tough. Obviously, he was very hyped up by everyone,” Adames said.</p><p>But Chourio’s demeanor in the Brewers clubhouse did not change one bit despite his struggles, as starting pitcher Freddy Peralta revealed.</p><p>“We knew he was going to be a superstar, but it was tough for him going through that. You could see he was frustrated, because he wanted to prove why he got paid. But he was the same kid in the clubhouse. He was still cracking jokes,” Peralta added.</p><p>Since the calendar flipped to May, Chourio <a href="https://www.statmuse.com/mlb/ask/jackson-chourio-ops-since-may-1-2024" rel="noopener">has hit 17 home runs</a> and driven in 64 runs batted in for the Brewers on OPS of .852. He has also been playing good defense both in left and right field, and he has also tallied 20 stolen bases on the year to make him a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-jackson-chourio-surpasses-legends-historic-feat">member of the 20-20 club</a> (he has a total of 21 dingers on the season) in his rookie year. The Brewers definitely have a gem on their hands, and he’s locked into the team for the foreseeable future.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The 20-year-old made MLB history on Thursday with a 20 home run, 20 stolen base season. According to the MLB official account, Chourio is the <a href="https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1834439908229873944" rel="noopener">youngest player</a> in league history to ever accomplish that feat.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jackson Chourio is the youngest player in MLB history to record a 20/20 season! <a href="https://t.co/SwwaIxQ0y0">pic.twitter.com/SwwaIxQ0y0</a></p><p>— MLB (@MLB) <a href="https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1834439908229873944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 13, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>According to CBS Sports, Chourio <a href="https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/brewers-rookie-jackson-chourio-20-becomes-youngest-member-of-mlbs-20-20-club/" rel="noopener">is the third</a> 20-year-old to ever have a 20/20 season. Mike Trout accomplished it in 2012 and Vada Pinson did it with the 1959 Cincinnati Reds. Trout won the Rookie of the Year that season but Pinson was not a rookie when he did it. Chourio is currently on the outside looking in on the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/what-paul-skenes-must-do-beat-jackson-merrill-2024-nl-roy-award">National League Rookie of the Year race</a>.</p><p>The Brewers star is <a href="https://www.covers.com/mlb/rookie-of-the-year-odds" rel="noopener">a distant third</a> in the Rookie of the Year odds at every sportsbook despite his history-making season. Chourio sits behind Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes and Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill, who have stolen headlines all season long. Merrill has been an important piece of a playoff-caliber team and Skenes has taken the league by storm despite the Pirates’ collapse.</p><p>This season has been surprising on many levels for the Brewers. They lost their manager to the division-rival Chicago Cubs, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-corbin-burnes-trade-grade-stunning-deal-orioles">traded their ace Corbin Burnes</a>, and faced an up-and-coming Reds team. Milwaukee has responded by running away with the division thanks to one of the best rookies in the league.</p><h2><b>Brewers’ future with Jackson Chourio</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Jackson-Chourio-with-Milwaukee-Brewers.jpg"><figcaption>Stan Szeto-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The future of the Milwaukee Brewers lies heavily on the shoulders of Jackson Chourio. They have pasted together a pitching rotation and bullpen on the move and replaced Christian Yelich’s output with Chourio on their way to a division title. Milwaukee is not a traditionally high-spending team but has locked up the rookie for the foreseeable future.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/brewers-news-milwaukee-discussing-groundbreaking-contract-top-prospect">Chourio will be with the Brewers</a> until at least 2031 after he signed a massive extension. It was a gamble for Milwaukee, who offered him a contract before he ever played a game. He struggled out of the gate, making it look like a risky play. His rookie season turned around, making the $82 million deal look like a bargain.</p><p>This type of move was made popular by the Atlanta Braves, who locked up Ronald Acuña, Spencer Strider, Michael Harris II, and Sean Murphy before they proved themselves on an MLB field. They then had the cap flexibility to add Jorge Soler, Joc Pederson, Charlie Morton, and other key pieces of their 2021 championship.</p><p>The Brewers must do the same thing and surround Chourio with veteran talent in upcoming seasons. They did that to a certain degree at this year’s trade deadline, adding Frankie Montas and Aaron Civale to stabilize the pitching size. Willy Adames is likely to leave after the season and should command a large contract as a shortstop in free agency.</p><p>The Brewers have a star to build around in Jackson Chourio, a veteran superstar in Christian Yelich, and a manager in Pat Murphy who has taken advantage of his first opportunity. After Craig Counsell left, expectations for the Brewers were low. A 20/20 season from the rookie Chourio has helped them close out the NL Central.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
