Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski, pumping 96 mph sliders, opens career with 11 straight hitless innings

Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski completed his second career start on Friday. He’s still waiting to allow his first hit.

A week after posting five no-hit innings in his MLB debut before exiting with cramps, the 23-year-old right-hander arguably looked even better in his second start by taking a perfect game into the sixth inning against the Minnesota Twins. In total, he opened his career with 11 straight hitless innings.

Per the Brewers broadcast, he is the first starting pitcher in MLB’s live-ball era (since 1920) to post 10 straight hitless innings to begin his career. The overall record for hitless innings to open career still belongs to reliever Austin Cox with 11 2/3 in 2023.

It was not hard to see how Misiorowski accomplished it. Per Baseball Savant, his fastball averaged 100.6 mph and topped out at 102.1 mph, and that wasn’t even his most unhittable pitch. What batters really had trouble with was a slider that topped out at 96.7 mph.

That is not a typo. Misiorowski threw a slider 96.7 mph.

With Misiorowski at 80 pitches and the Brewers up 8-0 after a seventh-inning rally, the team opted to leave him in to pitch the bottom of the seventh. That quickly went badly, with Misiorowski walking the leadoff batter on four pitches then allowing a two-run homer to Matt Wallner.

Milwaukee opted to pull him after that, to a standing ovation from the opposing crowd. His final line: 6-plus innings pitched, one hit, two runs, one walk and six strikeouts. His ERA sits at 1.64.

In total, Misiorowski threw 29 pitches of at least 100 mph. That’s more than any starting pitcher not named Hunter Greene has thrown this season, and matches Stephen Strasburg’s career total.

With a stat like that, there’s really no telling how far Misiorowski can go in his career. He currently sits as the No. 66 overall prospect in baseball, according to MLB Pipeline (with most of the concerns centered on his control). At 6-foot-7, he’s an imposing force on the mound and so far exceeding even the most outlandish of expectations.

Monday Night Football Week 7 Preview: Odds, lines, best bets

Game Overview Two of the NFC’s finest in the Buccaneers and Lions have seen each other frequently over recent years. They faced off twice in 2023, with the Lions covering twice as the favorite, including a six-point cover in Detroit during the NFC Divisional round playoff. That wasn’t the same story when they met up early in 2024, with the Bucs stealing the outright win as 7.5-point underdogs in Detroit. This time around, there will be no shortage of bad blood, with each team vying for control of the conference. The Bucs are currently seated atop the NFC with a 5-1 overall record, while the Lions aren’t far behind at 4-2. It’s a similar story in betting markets, with both franchises tied among many teams for the NFL’s best cover rate (66.7%). Tampa has been deadly on the road this […]
