Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio was optimistic after exiting with a hamstring issue during Saturday's victory over the Chicago Cubs in the opener of their NL Division Series, but manager Pat Murphy was more cautious.
Chourio was removed in the second inning after legging out an infield single that put Milwaukee in front 9-1. It was his third hit of the game as the Brewers batted around in each of the first two innings on the way to a 9-3 win.
Chourio, who missed almost all of August with a strained right hamstring, was removed for pinch runner Isaac Collins after being examined by training staff. Chourio had right hamstring tightness and underwent an MRI.
