Brewers' Jackson Chourio joins Mantle, Harper, Soto in legendary MLB playoff history

6 hours ago 2

Jackson Chourio is already etching his name among baseball's all-time greats.

How's a list of these five names sound? Mickey Mantle, Andruw Jones, Bryce Harper, Miguel Cabrera and Juan Soto.

Make it six with Chourio.

The feat: At least four postseason home runs through their age-21 season, with the grouping shared on X by @JayHayKid.

Chourio left the yard again Tuesday night to continue growing his early Milwaukee legend.

He has been as advertised and more since rocketing through the Brewers' minor league system and earning one of those rich contracts that Milwaukee handed him before he had even played in the major leagues.

There are no disappointments on that list that Chourio is on.

Mantle became one of the greatest players for the winningest franchise in baseball history, the Yankees.

Jones was as good as anyone in baseball for the first half of his career with the Braves.

Harper was all hype and lived up to all of it for the Nationals.

Cabrera's early days with the Marlins were incredible (as was his later stage with the Tigers).

And Soto? He took the playoffs by storm almost immediately for the Nats.

Now Chourio is doing his thing.

The Brewers obviously would prefer to be playing better against the Dodgers, but Chourio is doing what he can. All he can do is keep it up.
