Jackson Chourio's walk-off against Mason Miller, captured from the field!

[u/MLBOfficial]

[u/FormalWare]

I'm having trouble remembering a better postseason at-bat (in a do-or-die situation). The guy is TWENTY-TWO. Ice water in his veins.

[u/AcanthocephalaGreen5 → u/FormalWare]

Not just ice water, his veins have Lake Superior water in them.

[u/tehbantho → u/AcanthocephalaGreen5]

Veins of Culver's frozen custard, with a fire of the hottest fried cheese curd burning in his belly.

[u/ddthrow1233 → u/tehbantho]

must have had a curderburger before the game today...

[u/UeckerisGod → u/AcanthocephalaGreen5]

Its true. He never gives up his dead when the skies of November turn gloomy

[u/off_the_marc → u/FormalWare]

And under contract until 2033

[u/Grade-AMasterpiece → u/off_the_marc]

Add more years. Keep him through his prime.

[u/XPlutoniumX → u/Grade-AMasterpiece]

Only LA or NY can afford that

[u/bout3_50 → u/FormalWare]

Big Papi had a few

[u/Parking-Coach574 → u/FormalWare]

Brosseau of the Rays had an insane one against Chapman in 2020

[u/Jessssiiiiccccaaaa → u/FormalWare]

Dude looks way older than 22

[u/HashOutHashBrowns → u/Jessssiiiiccccaaaa]

It be the beard.

But also, this is the like the tenth comment saying Chourio looks way older than he is and three of those suggested he actually is older than that.

[u/Infinite_Response113]

Doing that against Mason Miller is crazy

[u/Zloggt → u/Infinite_Response113]

To be fair…Stammen lowkey kind of set him up to fail by leaving him out like that to begin with!

[u/jebuizy → u/Zloggt]

I think he needs to be able to do it tbh. It's October. If the best closer in the league can't go 2, it's on him

[u/BrianMeen → u/jebuizy]

I’d think the best closer in the league should have to go 2 innings

[u/mysticlepopsicle → u/Zloggt]

His season high is 30 pitches. I was surprised Craig let him go that long AND face Chourio. But that's the fate of a manager, if he pulls Miller and Adam (or whoever else comes in) lets the Brewers walk it off, they blame Stammen for not using your best arm (even if taxed and pushing 40 pitches). If Miller blows it, they blame Stammen. He chose to ride with his closer and now he's gonna wear it.

[u/ELITE_JordanLove → u/mysticlepopsicle]

Yep. At that point you may as well leave him in, no way to come out looking good if either guy blows it. Hindsight is easy. Chourio misses by a quarter inch on that foul and it’s praised as a genius move. Such is baseball. 

[u/Whatsdota → u/mysticlepopsicle]

Also he pitched a great at bat to Chourio. Chourio just got the better of him on this one

[u/horsehasnoname → u/Zloggt]

That Sanchez AB was key. You know Miller couldn't just couldn't locate his FB and his slider never looked like a strike at all. Churio was hunting fastball and got one right down the middle

[u/redditlvlanalysis → u/horsehasnoname]

I think the Yelich steal also put a ton of pressure on him honestly

[u/Existing-Stranger632 → u/horsehasnoname]

Yep. Miller shouldn’t have been allowed to pitch after walking Sanchez. Padres do have a deep enough bullpen that they could’ve gone to another arm. Kind of strange decision making by Stammen. This move cost them the series

[u/ELITE_JordanLove → u/Existing-Stranger632]

If they pull Miller and whoever is next gives up a hit to Chourio, zero chance the manager isn’t getting absolutely tarred for pulling the best reliever in baseball. 

[u/OnlyForBaseball → u/ELITE_JordanLove]

I usually agree with this, but no chance here. He walked the bases loaded. He didn’t throw a single competitive fastball up in the zone. Every slider he threw to Sanchez was a cement mixer or uncompetitive

Everyone could see he was drowning except his manager

[u/Pizzarcato]

Jackson Chourio is just built for the spotlight!

[u/squizzage → u/Pizzarcato]

For all the "lights too bright for this anemic brewers offense finally facing real pitching" comments I saw for eight innings of the game thread:

lol

lmao

[u/Babou_Ocelot]

Inject it into my VEINS

[u/Zloggt → u/Babou_Ocelot]

Man, Miller Park “AmFam Field” is such a vibe…I’ve got to see a game there…

[u/SoberDrainoDrinker69 → u/Zloggt]

SOX BREWERS WORLD SERIES GOD WILLS IT

[u/IllogicalBarnacle → u/SoberDrainoDrinker69]

There was a comment in r/CFB regarding the Notre Dame @ Wisconsin game where people were saying “Catholics vs alcoholics” and then a bunch of comments pointing out those are the same thing

White Sox vs Brewers would have the same vibe

[u/_isthisbillable → u/SoberDrainoDrinker69]

This is my bet. It’ll be Sox vs Brewers this year

[u/Waystar_BluthCo → u/Zloggt]

Come on up and tailgate! You’ll make friends easily, we love sharing beer

[u/HashOutHashBrowns → u/Zloggt]

You were right the first time. It’ll always be Miller Park

[u/Odd-Comfortable-1939]

[u/TyranusAura]

Electric series!! Chourio is the man

[u/SeaCalligrapher3783 → u/TyranusAura]

Upvote for good sport.

[u/Big_Ol_Johnson]

Clutch at bats from everyone in the 9th. Really insane finish

[u/ddthrow1233]

i love that lara was the 1st one out there haha hes the best

[u/CELTICPRED → u/ddthrow1233]

"He's the fastest kid alive!"

[u/Shkmstr]

I turned the game on right when I saw the bases were loaded. Really just an awesome matchup. Either way it ended would’ve been exciting. This is why baseball is amazing.

[u/cardmanimgur]

The best sound in sports is the second roar. The first buzz when he hits it, the eruption when it gets through. Just love it. Minneapolis Miracle is the best example of it and it's so awesome.

[u/JBProds]

Absolute cinema

[u/of_course_horse]

I don't think I have ever heard stadium that loud and the roof was open

[u/realfakejames]

Unreal inning, you could have asked 100 people and none of them would have told you Mason Miller would walk 3 guys and blow the save

Chourio got his playoff moment

[u/IamSpace_Ghost → u/realfakejames]

If you ask 100 San Diegans you’d get 100 people telling you we’d choke. We’re cursed.

[u/good_morning_magpie → u/IamSpace_Ghost]

Brother, a third of the year I have to dig my car out of a big frozen slush pile and layer up for subzero temps.

You get 75° and sunny like 350+ days per year.

We suffer for it. You can comfortably go for a walk in shorts, during January. There’s a trade off happening here on some level. You can’t have sports success and prefect weather every day.

[u/IamSpace_Ghost → u/good_morning_magpie]

It’s 100 degrees today, I don’t have AC in my apartment and I can’t afford a house! What a paradise

[u/11b328i → u/IamSpace_Ghost]

But the tacos bro. For real. And the ocean… You can swim with sharks in la joya, we got dead salmon Right about now.

[u/ArthurMorgansInhaler → u/IamSpace_Ghost]

Just jump in the ocean!

[u/IamSpace_Ghost → u/ArthurMorgansInhaler]

The ocean is hotter than ever

[u/Bertrando1 → u/IamSpace_Ghost]

Still cooler than your non a/c apartment!

[u/SeedyRedwood → u/realfakejames]

Check his draft kings! Believe me, I know it when I see it!

[u/Spinmove55]

God, I want to root for San Diego like the old days, but… Manny Machado.

Go Brew Crew!

[u/SoberDrainoDrinker69]

LEGACY AB FOR GARY SANCHEZ PUT HIM IN THE HALL

[u/Scuba_Squadleader]

Remind me to call my doctor in 4 hours

[u/DFW3K → u/Scuba_Squadleader]

The real winner of this series is Lexapro istg

[u/Kindly_Coffee_9389 → u/DFW3K]

sublingual nitroglycerin

[u/ThomPinecone]

Jackson Chourio is a legitimate superstar

[u/jacknifee]

[u/FunnyLoud3067]

JACKSON CHOURIO!!!!

[u/Exotic-Doughnut-6271]

Dude is only 22. Crazy.

[u/SufficientGolf6953]

Milwaukee hype af right now. I picked San Diego to win it all and you guys are making me look bad

[u/Nihilist_Nautilus]

We are devil magic now

[u/I_Like_To_Hyuck]

Chourio is him

[u/Sufficient-Major-644]

The new face of Milwaukee!

[u/falseaccuser]

It's hard not to be romantic about baseball.

[u/ForensicFooty]

BREWWWWWWW CREWWWWWWWWW

[u/CuriousEyes02]

Playoff baseball is the best

[u/LastOfTheChosen]

Maybe I'm crazy but you probably shouldn't let your closer throw 40

[u/Reasonable-Power]

PLAYOFF BASEBALL, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

[u/carpetsoop]

Someone somewhere is blaming this on the roof

[u/itshurleytime]

Cinema

[u/Goob2573]

Love that Feliciano and kwanza had front row seats to this 🤭🤭

[u/ScatteredLodges]

Went super saiyan!

[u/energytaker]

[u/PatientNet3793]

2 outs

couldn't be bigger

[u/krazyski]

Man I love playoff baseball

[u/trinquin]

Built for it. Reggie Jackson Regen.

[u/Wetworth]

I'm having a delightful evening, all of a sudden.

[u/of_course_horse]

These boys going to win it all

[u/BrianMeen]

I would love to know what Miller thinks about that series of events?

[u/john2776 → u/BrianMeen]

It’s 100% on his manager. Absolute baboon managing. Miller wasnt built up for 6 outs, anyone could see that after the walks.

[u/jmike1256]

INCREDIBLE MOMENT!!

[u/jmike1256]

THATS WHAT POSTSEASON BASEBALL IS ABOUT

[u/PalaceJoey]

Absolute DAWG

[u/aeisenst]

He got so excited he went full Kong
