See the full story · 1 sourcesBrewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski has already overpowered hitters all season with the kind of velocity that shouldn't even be possible from a starter. On Sunday, he somehow managed to take that to another level.
In the Milwaukee's game against the Rockies, Misiorowski put together the kind of performance that Brewers fans will be bringing up for years to come. Misiorowski retired the first 14 batters he faced, and 12 were via strikeouts. He struck out the first seven batters of the game. Through four innings, he had 11 strikeouts. It was unreal.
And as if that wasn't enough, his velocity numbers looked like something out of a video game.
Misiorowski threw 66 fastballs on Sunday. All 66 of them were in the triple digits, and 33 pitches hit at least 103 mph. He has an actual rocket for an arm.

— MLB (@MLB) July 26, 2026 The lone hit that he allowed was a solo home run to Cole Carrigg in the fifth inning. In all, Misiorowski went five innings and struck out a franchise-best 12 batters. Understandably, fans were in awe of the performance. The velocity numbers were just silly.
