Jacob Misiorowski sets MLB record with 57 100‑mph pitches

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski set a new Major League Baseball record on Monday, throwing 57 pitches at 100 miles per hour or faster in a 5-1 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. The performance marks the most 100-plus mph pitches in a single game since pitch tracking began in 2008.

The 24-year-old right-hander matched his career high with 12 strikeouts over seven innings, allowing just one run on two hits and one walk. His earned run average improved to 1.83. The previous record for 100-mph pitches in a game was 47, set by Cincinnati’s Hunter Greene against St. Louis in September 2022. Misiorowski also tied Greene’s record by recording nine of his strikeouts on pitches that reached triple digits.

Misiorowski’s velocity was exceptional throughout the outing. Of his 96 total pitches, 40 reached 101 mph, 22 reached 102 mph, and nine were clocked at 103 mph or higher. His top velocity was 103.4 mph, which he achieved three times. The dominant start extended his recent scoreless innings streak to 29 and one-third innings before the Cardinals scored in the sixth inning. The Brewers' franchise record for consecutive scoreless innings is 32, set by Teddy Higuera in 1987.
