Milwaukee Brewers\u00a0<\/a>right-handed ace Jacob Misiorowski’s arm is like a rocket. The team better not exhaust its fuel supply too fast.\u00a0<\/p>\n Misiorowski made his first start since the All-Star break in a home game against the Colorado Rockies\u00a0<\/a>on Sunday. He clearly had the need for speed after almost two weeks of rest.\u00a0<\/p>\n Misiorowski struck out seven consecutive batters to start the game. Of the seven pitches he threw to strike out a batter, the slowest was a 91.3 mph curveball to Rockies first baseman T.J. Rumfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n He kept bringing the heat for the rest of his outing, finishing with 12 strikeouts in five innings pitched in an 11-2 Brewers win. Per Baseball Savant,<\/a> Misiorowski threw 83 pitches in Milwaukee’s victory, 66 of which were fastballs. The average speed on those pitches was 102.8 mph.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nJacob Misiorowski shatters velocity record in start against Rockies\u00a0<\/h2>\n
