Jackson Chourio Becomes Youngest To Record 20-20 Season 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Sep 13, 2024 12:20 pm

Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jackson Chourio made history in Thursday\'s win over the San Francisco Giants.

Jackson homered in the 3-0 victory, becoming the first player in Major League history to record a 20-homer, 20-stolen base season before his 21st birthday.

Two other players logged 20-20 campaigns in their age-20 seasons -- the Cincinnati Reds\' Vada Pinson in 1959 and the Los Angeles Angels\' Mike Trout in 2012 -- but both had turned 21 by the time they joined the club.

“I’m just very proud and happy to maybe have a little bit of an edge on that record,” Chourio said.

Chourio won\'t turn 21 until next March.
