***   The End   ***

10 hits first four World Series games: Chourio and Ruth.

Jackson Chourio has now played four World Series games, all in 2026. Since the series is not over, he will play more. Had it ended in four games, my understanding is that he would be only the second player with ten hits in a four game sweep World Series.

The first and only is still Babe Ruth. But let's compare them before Chourio plays game five tonight.
