"Absolutely classless" - Fans slam Dodgers crowd for booing as Jackson Chourio leaves NLCS Game 3 with possible hamstring injury

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio has been playing through injury in the postseason. However, the 21-year-old seemingly aggravated his hamstring injury during NLCS Game 3 against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

In the seventh inning of the matchup, Chourio fouled off a pitch from Dodgers reliver Blake Treinen and his awkward swing hurt his hamstring.

Chourio was unable to put any weight on his foot and eventually hobbled off the pitch. As he made his way to the dugout, Dodgers faithful at the ballpark booed the young outfielder.

MLB fans reacted to the crowd booing the Brewers outfielder.

"Dodgers fans booing absolute classless fans."

"Classy dodger fans booing."

"And the dodgers fans boo injured players again, not surprised."

"That was really tough to watch."

"Well that sucks."

Chourio reportedly hurt his hamstring during Game 1 of the division series against the Chicago Cubs, but he played through the injury to help the team reach the championship series against the Dodgers.

While Chaitanya's favorite player from the current crop is the dynamic Venezuelan Ronald Acuna Jr., his all-time favorite, however, is Pedro Martinez, for his self-belief and consistency. He also rates Jose Bautista's iconic bat flip in 2015 as his favorite moment in baseball history.

When not cheering for his favorites across sports, Chaitanya likes being transported to the past through a good war documentary or a historical documentary in general.
