Jacob Misiorowski is already making history this season, and we're barely out of the gate. The Milwaukee Brewers' young flamethrower delivered a performance for the ages last night, shutting out the New York Yankees 6-0 in a dominant series opener. But it wasn't just the final score that had fans buzzing—it was the sheer velocity coming out of Misiorowski's arm.

From the very first pitch, Misiorowski was on another level. He didn't just pitch well; he rewrote the record books. In the opening inning alone, he unleashed 10 pitches clocked at a staggering 102 to 104 mph. To put that in perspective, the previous record for the fastest pitch ever thrown by a starting pitcher was set by Jordan Hicks back in July 2022, at 103.2 mph. Misiorowski didn't just break that mark—he obliterated it, throwing the five fastest pitches ever recorded by a starter, all in that first inning. Seven of his pitches topped the old record, and five of them came before the fans had even settled into their seats.

For context, Hicks was used as an opener in that 2022 game, pitching just 1⅔ innings. If you're looking for a pitch thrown in a more traditional start, you'd have to go all the way back to 2011, when Justin Verlander hit triple digits in Game 5 of the ALCS. In fact, only 14 times in MLB history has a starting pitcher thrown a pitch of at least 103 mph—and Misiorowski did it 10 times in a single night.

But the history doesn't stop there. Misiorowski also recorded the third-most pitches of 100+ mph in a single game (43), and he already holds the mark for fourth-most. It's the kind of raw power that reminds us why baseball is as much about the spectacle as the scoreboard. For a young pitcher in a Brewers uniform, this is the kind of breakout that turns heads across the league—and makes fans eager to see what he'll do next.

Whether you're tracking his rise or just love seeing pitchers push the limits, one thing is clear: Misiorowski isn't just throwing heat—he's throwing history.
