Brewers’ Jackson Chourio Exits NLDS Game 1 With Right Hamstring Tightness

Concern centers on a recurrence of his prior right hamstring strain, pending further evaluation.

Overview

  • The 21-year-old outfielder left after becoming the first player to record three hits in the first two innings of a postseason game.
  • He pulled up awkwardly after beating out a second-inning grounder and was replaced by pinch runner Isaac Collins following visits from manager Pat Murphy and head athletic trainer Brad Epstein.
  • The team described the issue as right hamstring tightness, and Murphy said on the TBS broadcast it is the same hamstring that sidelined Chourio for a month.
  • Chourio previously strained his right hamstring on July 29, went on the injured list, and was not activated until August 30.
  • Milwaukee has not provided a timetable, and his availability for the rest of the series remains uncertain as further testing will determine severity.
