How a 22-year-old Jackson Chourio beat baseball’s most overpowering closer with the Brewers down to their last strike

In a dramatic turn during Game 2 of the National League Division Series, the Milwaukee Brewers secured a 4-3 comeback victory over the San Diego Padres. Trailing by one run in the final frame, Milwaukee loaded the bases against closer Mason Miller, who had been dominant throughout the postseason.

With two outs and two strikes, 22-year-old Jackson Chourio connected with a 101.3 mph fastball, driving the ball through the middle of the infield. The clutch hit allowed Christian Yelich and Sal Frelick to score, capping a rally that overcame the Padres' late-inning lead.
