Jacob Misiorowski's 105.5 mph Pitch Ties Third‑Fastest in MLB History
Milwaukee Brewers right‑hander Jacob Misiorowski threw a 105.5 mph fastball, matching the third‑fastest pitch recorded since velocity tracking began in 2008. The pitch came during the Brewers' 6‑2 victory over the Chicago Cubs, marking his eighth win in nine decisions.
Misiorowski allowed one run on two hits and two walks over six innings, striking out eight and delivering 55 pitches at 100 mph or higher. The performance improved his recent record to 8‑1 in his last ten starts and solidified his league‑leading 1.45 ERA for the season. His 105.5 mph throw ties Ben Joyce's 2024 mark and trails only Aroldis Chapman’s 105.8 mph and 105.7 mph deliveries.
The win extended Milwaukee’s streak to five straight games, with contributions from teammates Garrett Mitchell, William Contreras, and Christian Yelich. The Brewers’ pitching staff also saw the return of Abner Uribe and the activation of left‑hander Jared Koenig after injuries.
