Brewers Rookie Jacob Misiorowski Dominates with 104.3 MPH Fastball in Shutout Relief
Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski delivered a standout performance in Game 2 of the NL Division Series against the Chicago Cubs, throwing three innings of shutout relief in the Brewers' 7-3 victory. The flamethrowing right-hander reached an astounding 104.3 mph on his fastball, with 31 of his 57 pitches exceeding 100 mph. He struck out four batters while allowing only one hit and two walks, earning the win. Manager Pat Murphy lauded Misiorowski's composure and ability to throw strikes, addressing previous issues with control and poise. After an All-Star rookie season marred by a bruised left tibia and a late-season slump (23 earned runs in 32 2/3 innings), this outing showcased his immense impact potential for a deep postseason run, as he entered a tied game in the third inning and maintained his focus despite high adrenaline.
