Brewers Beat Cardinals; Misiorowski Sets Record with 57 100-Mph Pitches
- On Monday, Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski threw 57 pitches of at least 100 mph in a 5-1 victory over St. Louis, setting a record since pitch tracking began in 2008 and surpassing Hunter Greene's previous mark of 47.
- Misiorowski maintains his status as baseball's hardest-throwing starter with 22 career pitches at 103 mph or higher, while dramatically improving his control from 87 walks in 66 innings last year to 19 in 64 innings this season.
- He walked leadoff hitter JJ Wetherholt on six consecutive pitches exceeding 103 mph, then struck out 10 of the next 13 batters, reaching 102 mph on 22 pitches with nine at 103 mph or higher and a top velocity of 103.4 mph.
- Brewers manager Pat Murphy called it "magnificent" and "one of the best performances I've seen in a long time," while first baseman Andrew Vaughn said the fastball is "probably the best in the game." Milwaukee extended its NL Central lead to 2 1/2 games.
- Misiorowski believes he can reach 105 mph, and his sustained excellence throughout May—allowing just one run over five starts with 49 strikeouts—reflects offseason work on lower-body conditioning alongside his elite arm strength.
