Jackson Chourio Hits Decisive Homer in Brewers' 2-1 Win Over Minnesota

Chourio went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in a 2-1 win against Minnesota on Saturday.

Chourio carried the Brewers' offense in the victory, recording both of the team's extra-base hits and two of the club's overall five hits. His solo home run in the sixth inning broke a 1-1 tie and proved to be the game-winning RBI, as neither team scored thereafter.

Chourio didn't make his season debut until May 4, and the long ball was his first of the campaign. He's hit well overall, posting a .318/.362/.500 slash line across 10 contests.

Chad Patrick Records Four-Inning Save

Patrick notched a save against the Twins on Sunday, striking out three batters and allowing one hit over four scoreless innings.

Patrick entered in the sixth inning after Logan Henderson allowed one run over five frames as the starter. Patrick retired nine of the 10 batters he faced over the next three frames, so manager Pat Murphy elected to keep the right-hander in the game for the ninth.

That proved to be a good decision, as Patrick retired the side in order to close out the contest. The save was the first of his career in just his ninth relief appearance across 37 total MLB outings.
