MILWAUKEE (AP) — Jackson Merrill went 3 for 5 and singled home two runs during a six-run rally in the fifth inning as the San Diego Padres defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 7-3 on Monday night.
The game featuring two heralded 20-year-old rookies with the first name of Jackson — San Diego’s Merrill and Milwaukee’s Chourio — included big performances from both.
Chourio went 2 for 4, homered and scored twice. The outfielder’s two-run shot in the second inning gave the Brewers an early 3-0 lead.
The Padres trailed 3-1 before their unusual outburst in the fifth. The rally featured no extra-base hits, but did include six singles, a walk, a passed ball, catcher’s interference and a pitch-clock violation.
“We just took what the game gave us and strung together a lot of good team at-bats and were able to put together a big crooked number to help us take that lead,” Padres manager Mike Shildt said. “And we were able to hold on to it.”
