Milwaukee Brewers rookie starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski pitched another gem on Wednesday, adding to his fantastic career start and raising the team’s 2025 ceiling.

In a 4-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, Misiorowski, making his third career start, was once again masterful while improving to 3-0. He pitched five shutout innings, allowing four total base runners with a season-high eight strikeouts.

Through 16 career innings, Misiorowski has a 1.13 ERA. He pitched five no-hit innings in his debut on June 12 vs. the St. Louis Cardinals, followed by a perfect-game bid that was broken up in the seventh against the Minnesota Twins eight days later.

batters, striking out 19 (33.9 percent) and allowing 10 to reach base (17.8 percent), including just three via hit.

Milwaukee’s top pitching prospect has a devastating four-seam fastball. Per Baseball Savant, through his first two starts, his average fastball velocity (99.7 mph) ranked in the top one percent among MLB pitchers.

On Wednesday, he out-dueled Pirates flame-throwing ace Paul Skenes, throwing the 16 fastest pitches and 19 of at least 100 mph.

MLB’s social media team highlighted one sequence against Pirates first baseman Spencer Horwitz when Misiorowski threw five consecutive 100 mph four-seam fastballs, ending in a strikeout.
