For the second time in two weeks, Jackson Chourio could be counted on by his Milwaukee teammates for big-time offense, blasting two big home runs in the same game on Saturday, June 13.
But unfortunately, the impressive accomplishment still got buried in a loss for the Brewers , just as it had a few weeks before.
Chourio rocked his second homer of the night in the seventh inning of a comeback attempt that fell just short by the Brewers, hitting a 1-1 pitch to center field that trimmed a five-run deficit to 8-5.
After the Phillies tacked on a run in the top of the eight, the Brewers scored three times – with the last run scoring on a single by Chourio – in the bottom of the inning to bring the score to 9-8.
But Milwaukee couldn’t finish and lost by a run to Philadelphia at American Family Field.
The outcome was the same June 4 when Chourio had two home runs in the 12-9 loss to San Francisco .
Still, it’s a bright spot to see Chourio so productive, coming back from the left hand injury that sidelined him for the first month of start the season.
Chourio's stat line – 4 of his last 8 home runs this season have come in the last four games – has boosted Milwaukee's offense. He also has four doubles and 20 RBI in his last 14 games before Sunday.
