Brewers' Chourio Injured After Triple Against Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers center fielder Jackson Chourio left Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs with a right hamstring injury sustained after hitting a triple, following a defensive misplay by Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong. Chourio signaled discomfort as he reached third base and was removed from the game after consultation with trainers and manager Pat Murphy. He has been a key offensive contributor for the Brewers, batting .276 with 17 home runs and leading the league in doubles, while hitting safely in 21 of his last 22 games. Blake Perkins is expected to fill in if Chourio misses additional time. The Brewers currently lead the NL Central and will further evaluate Chourio's status. The incident occurred during a contentious series highlighted by disputed umpire calls and defensive miscues from both teams.
