Brewers List Jackson Chourio as Uncertain for Game 2 After Hamstring Issue

Milwaukee will assess the outfielder following an inconclusive MRI to determine his availability.

Overview

  • Chourio left Game 1 with tightness in his right hamstring — the same leg he strained in August — after beating out an infield single.
  • Manager Pat Murphy said the MRI was inconclusive, and further on-field testing is underway to gauge whether he can play in Game 2.
  • During the off-day workout, he was seen doing low-stress hamstring drills as part of the evaluation process.
  • Murphy said Isaac Collins would most likely take Chourio’s lineup spot if the outfielder is unavailable.
  • The Brewers lead the NLDS 1-0 after a 9-3 win, and plan to open Game 2 with lefty Aaron Ashby against Cubs starter Shota Imanaga.
