Jacob Misiorowski throws 15‑strikeout complete‑game shutout as Brewers beat Phillies

Jacob Misiorowski delivered a franchise‑record performance for the Milwaukee Brewers, pitching a nine‑inning, one‑hit shutout against the Philadelphia Phillies. He struck out a career‑high 15 batters, worked just 95 pitches and threw a 104.5 mph fastball – the fastest recorded for a starter in the pitch‑tracking era. The win gave Milwaukee a 6‑0 victory, improved Misiorowski’s record to 8‑2, and lowered his ERA to 1.34 with a 0.74 WHIP.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy likened Misiorowski’s calm demeanor to “Forrest Gump,” a comment repeated in post‑game interviews. The pitcher emphasized that the outing does not change his approach, saying he will continue to compete and aim for seven innings when possible.
