Jackson Chourio joins short list of Brewers postseason walk-off heroes with at-bat for the ages

Jackson Chourio delivered a two-run walk-off single in the ninth inning of Game 2 of the 2026 NLDS, lifting the Brewers past the Padres after Christian Yelich, Sal Frelick, and Gary Sánchez loaded the bases with walks. Chourio battled through a six-pitch at-bat against Padres closer Mason Miller, who had led the league with 38 saves and entered the postseason without allowing an earned run, before lacing a 109 mph single up the middle. At 22 years and 207 days old, Chourio became the third youngest player in MLB history to record a postseason walk-off hit and only the second since 1969 to do so against a league-leading save pitcher while trailing.
