EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (WEAU) – It came down to the final strike of the game, but Jackson Chourio made sure to send the Milwaukee fans in attendance for Game 2 of the National League Division Series home happy. The young, superstar outfielder delivered a bases-loaded, walk-off single to give the Brewers a 2-0 lead in the series.
The Brewers trailed for the entirety of Sunday’s contest, after falling behind on a Ty France RBI single in the top of the 1st inning. but, for a second straight game, the Milwaukee lineup was able to get to the San Diego bullpen and spark a rally.
Trailing 3-1 in the 7th, David Hamilton’s speed led to a throwing error by Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth, as the Brewers cut the deficit to 3-2.
The Padres tried to lean on All-Star closer Mason Miller for a 2-inning save, but Milwaukee was able to load the bases in the 9th on a trio of walks. That set up Chourio, who delivered 2-2, 101 mph fastball up the middle to score Christian Yelich and Sal Frelick to earn the win.
The Brewers will head to San Diego for a potential series-clinching Game 3 Tuesday night.
