Rather than yet another Cactus League matchup for the Brewers, Milwaukee received the opportunity to scrimmage Team Great Britain prior to the country's participating in the 2023 World Baseball Classic.

The exhibition contest notably featered Jackson Chourio’s debut with the Major League club.  The organization's  top ranked prospect did not disappoint finishing the day 2-3 at the plate with two doubles and a walk.  Defensively, the 18-year-old talent played left field and threw a runner out at home.

With this taste of international competition in the books, the Brewers will resume Cactus League play on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants.
