Jacob Misiorowski Sets Brewers Franchise Record by Starting Game with 7 Straight Strikeouts

Misiorowski’s 104 mph fastballs fueled the streak, and he had 11 strikeouts through four innings while a perfect game remained intact.

  • On Sunday, Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski set a franchise record by striking out the first seven Colorado Rockies batters he faced at American Family Field, surpassing Quinn Priester's previous mark of six.
  • With a 1.57 ERA and 10-4 record through 2026, Misiorowski has routinely averaged above 100 mph on his four-seam fastball, having already thrown the fastest pitch by a starter in the tracking era at 105.5 mph.
  • By the end of the fourth inning, Misiorowski had struck out 11 of the first 12 Rockies hitters he faced. He retired the first 14 batters before Cole Carrigg homered with two outs in the fifth, ending the perfect game bid.
  • While impressive, the streak falls short of the all-time MLB record of nine consecutive strikeouts to start a game, owned by Pablo López on July 11, 2021, though Tom Seaver and Aaron Nola have recorded 10 straight strikeouts during games.
  • Several modern pitchers have matched the seven-strikeout opening, including Garrett Crochet, Blake Snell, and Paul Skenes. Official MLB accounts confirmed the new club mark, posting "SEVEN STRIKEOUTS IN A ROW" and noting Misiorowski was on fire from the first pitch.
