The Milwaukee Brewers know they have a superstar on their hands, but not even the efforts of Jackson Chourio were enough to get the job done in Game 4.

After a heartbreaking 4-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays in 12 innings, the pursuit of Milwaukee's first-ever World Series title goes on.

In the process, Chourio recorded his 10th hit through those four games, tying a 98-year-old record set by the one and only Babe Ruth.

To hear Chourio's name in the same sentence as Ruth doesn't feel real, but sure enough, those are the only two players to ever record 10 hits through the first four games of the Fall Classic.

Officially, Ruth did so back in 1928, so his record stood the test of time for two years shy of a century.

The 22-year-old recorded a pair of hits in Games 1 and 2, racked up four hits in Game 3, and then added two more in Game 4.

Throughout the entire postseason, he's slashing .291/.310/.436. While this record focuses solely on the World Series, it's beyond incredible to see what he's done in this deep run for Milwaukee.

Ruth is one of the best to ever do it. So, if Chourio would even sniff some of the same success he had in his career, he'd likely go down as the best Brewers player of all time.

Some would say he's already well on that path, and for good reason. Chourio has struggled a time or two in the postseason, but no one has asked him to be perfect. He came up with the team's biggest hit, by far, in Game 2 of the National League Division Series off Mason Miller.

Here in the World Series, he's driven in two runners and has touched home four times himself. 

He had a run in each of the first three World Series games, but that streak came to an end in Game 4.

To further prove how important he's been to the team, he also has three stolen bases in the Fall Classic, all three of which came in Games 2 and 3.

It's safe to assume that manager Pat Murphy will once again have Chourio bat leadoff in Game 5. While the Rays pitcher is still to be determined, this could once again be the game that gives the Brewers their first-ever World Series title.
