Brewers Take 2-0 NLDS Lead After Walk-Off Win Against Padres
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres in the second game of the National League Division Series. Jackson Chourio secured the victory with a two-run single in the bottom of the ninth inning.
The Milwaukee Brewers have moved one win away from advancing in the National League Division Series after a dramatic 2-0 victory over the San Diego Padres. The game remained scoreless for the majority of the contest, with both teams struggling to capitalize on scoring opportunities throughout the afternoon.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, the Brewers mounted a final rally against Padres closer Mason Miller. With two outs, Jackson Chourio delivered a decisive two-run single, driving in the winning runs and securing the victory for Milwaukee. This win gives the Brewers a commanding 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series as the teams prepare to shift locations for the remainder of the matchup.
The outcome puts significant pressure on the Padres, who must now win three consecutive games to avoid elimination. While the Brewers' offense was largely contained by Padres pitching for eight innings, the late-game surge proved sufficient to overcome the deficit. The series will continue with the next game scheduled to take place at Petco Park, where the Padres will look to stave off elimination in front of their home crowd.
