Another game, another hit for Jackson Chourio. The rising star of the Milwaukee Brewers put on a novel show Tuesday night against the San Francisco Giants at home. Chourio sent the crowd into a frenzy when he hit a huge two-run home run off Giants starter Logan Webb in the third inning that landed 449 feet.
The explosion also hit the giant scoreboard at American Family Field, destroying one of its panels.

Chourio used his advantage in the count against Webb. With two balls to start the game against Webb, Chourio blasted an 86 MPH changeup for a thunderous home run that also plated Brice Turanga.
What makes this home run even more impressive is that Webb is one of the league’s most stingy pitchers when it comes to allowing home runs. Webb entered the game with just 0.36 home runs allowed per nine innings – The best among qualified starters in the major leagues overall, according to FanGraphs.
