Jacob Misiorowski Sets Starter Velocity Records in 6-0 Brewers Win Over Yankees

The 24-year-old’s sustained triple‑digit heat moved him to the front of early Cy Young talk.

Overview

  • Jacob Misiorowski overwhelmed New York with six scoreless innings and 11 strikeouts in Milwaukee’s series opener Friday.
  • Statcast clocked a top speed of 103.6 mph, the fastest ever tracked for a starting pitcher since pitch tracking began in 2008.
  • He opened with 10 straight pitches at 102 mph or higher and finished with 22 at 102-plus and 41 at 100-plus, both single‑game records for a starter.
  • The 6-0 result was Milwaukee’s first shutout of the Yankees since 1992 and snapped a five‑game losing streak against New York.
  • Brewers outfielder Brandon Lockridge was carted off after a wall collision with a deep knee laceration, and manager Pat Murphy said X‑rays were negative for a fracture.
