The Milwaukee Brewers made a lot of World Series history in Game 3 on Monday night, including Jackson Chourio.

The 22-year-old outfielder continued his torrid World Series, going 4-for-5 and pacing the Brewers' 10-1 rout of the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. Milwaukee's leadoff man doubled, scored two runs, drove in one and stole a base, doing a little bit of everything.

In the process, Chourio became the youngest player with four hits in a World Series game since Joe Garagiola, who went 4-for-5 in Game 4 of the 1946 World Series as a 20-year-old rookie catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. He's the fifth-youngest player with at least four hits in a World Series game in MLB history and finished one hit shy of the World Series single-game record.


Chourio has been on fire in his first Fall Classic, going 8-for-15 with four runs, two RBI and three steals. After helping the Brewers take a 3-0 series lead, he's a clear frontrunner for World Series MVP at the moment.
