Brewers chase Cubs' All-Star Boyd in 1st inning of Game 1

The Milwaukee Brewers chased Chicago Cubs left-hander Matthew Boyd after the All-Star recorded just two outs in the first inning of Saturday's Game 1 of the NLDS.

The Brewers matched a franchise postseason record by scoring six runs on five hits in the frame, capped by Jackson Chourio's two-run single in his second at-bat of the inning.

William Contreras hit Milwaukee's third straight double to start the inning off Boyd after the Cubs had taken the lead in the top of the frame thanks to a leadoff homer by Michael Busch.

Boyd ended up surrendering six runs - two earned - on four hits with one walk and one strikeout on short rest. He last pitched Tuesday in Game 1 of the wild-card series against the San Diego Padres.

The 34-year-old's outing was the shortest playoff start by a Cubs pitcher since 1935.

Boyd posted a 3.21 ERA with 1.09 WHIP and 7.7 K/9 over 31 starts during the regular season in the best campaign of his 11-year career.
