Jackson Chourio coverage
Every position player’s top moment from the NLCS
The Brewers swept the Dodgers in the NLCS with contributions from nearly every position player. NLCS MVP Sal Bauers delivered the series' most impactful moment with an 11-pitch at-bat against Blake Snell in Game 3, hitting a two-run home run that gave Milwaukee a 3-2 lead worth +.320 WPA. Catcher Willy Contreras went 3-for-4 with a 438-foot home run in Game 2, while outfielders like Jackson Chourio and Joey Ortiz provided key hits and defensive plays throughout the series.
Brew Crew BallHow Dodgers' underestimation of Brewers' David Hamilton led to key insurance run in Game 4
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the 2026 NLCS, with David Hamilton hitting a solo home run off closer Edwin Díaz in the ninth inning to provide insurance runs. Hamilton, who hit only four home runs during the regular season after being acquired from Boston in February, connected off Díaz to extend Milwaukee's lead in what became a sweep. Brewers manager Pat Murphy had employed a strategic approach earlier in the game, instructing Hamilton to attempt a bunt to make opposing pitchers more aggressive, knowing that Hamilton led the league in bunt hits and that the pitcher would want to attack rather than walk him ahead of dangerous hitter Jackson Chourio. The Dodgers' underestimation of Hamilton's power, combined with Murphy's confidence in his third baseman, contributed to the decisive ninth-inning blast that helped send the Brewers to their first World Series appearance in 44 years.

Brew Crew BallEverything Brewers fans need to know about Dodgers’ Game 4 starter Tyler Glasnow
The Dodgers will start Tyler Glasnow in Game 4 of the NLCS with Milwaukee leading 3-0 and seeking to complete a sweep. Glasnow has been injury-prone this season with only 13 starts and walked multiple batters in each of his last five outings, a potential weakness the Brewers can exploit. However, Glasnow has historically dominated Milwaukee's lineup, with Christian Yelich, William Contreras, and Jackson Chourio all struggling significantly in matchups against him. The Brewers will counter with rookie left-hander Shane Drohan as they attempt to reach the World Series for the first time since 1982.
Reviewing the BrewUnsung hero from Brewers' Game 3 victory overshadows Pat Murphy's questionable bullpen decision
The Brewers defeated the Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLCS behind several offensive contributions, including Jackson Chourio's leadoff homer and Jake Bauers' go-ahead home run off Blake Snell. Manager Pat Murphy made a questionable decision by leaving struggling reliever Abner Uribe in the game to face Will Smith, who hit a two-run double to give Los Angeles the lead. DL Hall entered after the damage was done and delivered 2.1 scoreless innings of relief, becoming an unsung hero as the Brewers' offense rallied to win the game in the seventh inning.
Reviewing the BrewThe glue that’s been holding it all together: Garrett Mitchell
Garrett Mitchell finally stayed healthy for a full 2026 season, playing 145 games for the Milwaukee Brewers after injuries limited him to just 141 games combined from 2022-2025. The center fielder posted solid defense with three errors and made key postseason contributions, including a go-ahead home run in recent games, though he struck out 12 times in the playoffs. Manager Pat Murphy noted that Mitchell's injury history had created uncertainty about the team's potential, but his availability this year allowed the Brewers to field their intended homegrown outfield alongside Jackson Chourio and Sal Frelick.

Reviewing the BrewBauers blast has Brewers on the brink of World Series
Jake Bauers hit an 11-pitch home run off Blake Snell in the seventh inning to give the Brewers a 3-2 victory in Game Three of the NLCS, putting Milwaukee one win away from reaching the World Series for the first time in 44 years. Jackson Chourio homered on the game's first pitch, and Garrett Mitchell added another home run, while starter Robert Gasser pitched five scoreless innings for the Brewers. The Dodgers had taken a 2-1 lead on Will Smith's two-run double in the sixth inning before Bauers' heroics turned the game around.
Brew Crew BallBrewers' squash home run narrative in electrifying NLCS Game 3 victory over Dodgers
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-2 in Game 3 of the NLCS, taking a commanding 3-0 series lead and moving within one win of the World Series. Jackson Chourio hit a leadoff home run on the first pitch of the game off Blake Snell, and Jake Bauers followed with a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning after fouling off five pitches in an 11-pitch at-bat. The three home runs accounted for four of the Brewers' six runs, contradicting the narrative that the team lacked power despite hitting the second-fewest home runs during the regular season.

MLB.com BrewersTurang, Chourio among NL Gold Glove finalists for Brewers
Brice Turang and Jackson Chourio have been named Gold Glove finalists for the Brewers at second base and left field respectively. Turang is a finalist for the third consecutive year and leads his fellow second base finalists in defensive wins above replacement with 1.1, while Chourio posted a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage with no errors and leads left fielders in defensive value. If either player wins, Turang could become the third Brewer to win multiple Gold Gloves, and Chourio would be the first left fielder in franchise history to claim the award.

Brew Crew BallThe other Brewers outfielder who has quietly been incredibly clutch in his first two postseasons
Garrett Mitchell, the Brewers' 28-year-old center fielder, has emerged as a clutch performer in his limited postseason experience alongside Jackson Chourio. In Game 4 of the 2026 NLDS against San Diego, Mitchell went 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI single, accounting for two of the Brewers' three runs in their series-clinching victory. He also made a crucial defensive play by robbing Manny Machado of a potential game-tying two-run homer in the eighth inning. Mitchell's performance follows a similar pattern from 2024, when he hit a go-ahead two-run homer in a Wild Card Series game against the Mets.
Reviewing the BrewBreaking T releases new “Chourio-Miz ’26” & “Win Our Way” shirts
The Brewers have reached the NLCS for the second straight year and will face the defending champion Dodgers, with young stars Jackson Chourio and Jacob Misiorowski playing key roles in their postseason run.

Brew Crew BallWho would have won NLDS MVP for the Brewers this year if MLB handed out the award
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres 3-1 in a low-scoring NLDS where all four games were decided by two runs or fewer. Jackson Chourio would likely have won an NLDS MVP award if MLB handed one out, as he led the Brewers with six RBIs and had at least one RBI in every game, including a walk-off two-run single in Game 2 and a go-ahead RBI single in Game 4. Chourio's performance broke Ryan Braun's franchise postseason RBI record despite collecting just three hits, demonstrating clutch hitting and hard contact throughout the series. The Brewers' pitching was dominant, with their relief corps allowing just one earned run in 19 innings, while William Contreras added six hits and two home runs in key moments.
Reviewing the BrewUnsung hero from Brewers' NLDS victory over Padres creates difficult lineup decision going forward
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres 3-1 in the NLDS, with standout performances from Jackson Chourio, William Contreras, Aaron Ashby, and Garrett Mitchell. Outfielder Sal Frelick emerged as an unsung hero despite not starting Game 1, collecting hits in all three games he played while scoring two runs, driving in two runs, drawing two walks, and stealing a base with just one strikeout. Frelick's strong performance creates a difficult decision for manager Pat Murphy heading into the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers, as the 26-year-old has proven he deserves regular at-bats against right-handed pitchers despite being benched initially to start rookie Luis Lara against left-handed starter Robbie Ray in Game 1.
Reviewing the BrewBrewers extinguish red-hot Padres, advance to NLCS for second consecutive year
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres 3-1 in Game 4 to advance to the National League Championship Series for the second consecutive year.

Starter Robert Gasser allowed just one run over four innings, while reliever Aaron Ashby pitched three scoreless innings to secure the victory. The Brewers won the series after taking the first two games at home, then losing Game 3 before closing out the Padres in San Diego.
Reviewing the BrewNLCS Bound: Strong pitching, home run robbery by Mitchell leads Brewers to Game 4 win
The Brewers defeated the Padres 3-1 in Game 4 to advance to the NLCS, clinching the series in four games. Brewers pitcher Robert Gasser allowed just one run on three hits over four innings, while the bullpen was equally dominant in keeping the Padres' offense in check. Garrett Mitchell drove in a run with a single in the third inning and later made a spectacular leaping catch in the ninth to rob Manny Machado of a potential game-tying home run. The Brewers scored their other runs on a Chourio single in the fifth and a Frelick sacrifice fly in the sixth.
Brew Crew BallBrewers news: Christian Yelich's broken streak, Jackson Chourio ties Ryan Braun, Game 4 starter
The Padres defeated the Brewers 4-3 in Game 3 of their NLDS matchup, with strong defense helping San Diego avoid elimination. Christian Yelich ended an 87-plate-appearance postseason RBI drought with a seventh-inning single that scored William Contreras and cut the Padres' lead to one, while Jackson Chourio tied Ryan Braun's record with an RBI in the fifth inning. Yelich has been particularly productive through the first three playoff games, collecting four hits in ten at-bats with two walks and a stolen base while hitting the ball hard consistently.
