There is not a starting pitcher in Major League Baseball that lights up the radar gun the way Jacob Misiorowski of the Milwaukee Brewers does. He showed that again on Friday night against the New York Yankees with one of the most dominant innings of the 2026 season.
Brewers’ Jacob Misiorowski throws insane inning of 100-plus fastballs
So what exactly did his top of the first inning look like?
He threw 10 pitches.
The first eight were strikes, with three of them being whiffs and two of them resulting in strikeouts of Trent Grisham and Ben Rice. The ninth pitch, after jumping out to an 0-2 count on Aaron Judge, was a ball and resulted in him just missing an immaculate inning. The 10th pitch was a line out to end the inning.
Normal routine stuff, right?
Wrong.
Every single pitch was a four-seam fastball. All of them topped 102 mph on the radar gun. That selection of pitches also accounted for the five fastest pitches ever thrown by a starting pitcher since that data started to be recorded.
