He's reaching new heights for a starting pitcher's velocity and dominating batters. And yet, Jacob Misiorowski might be even better than you realize.

If you think you know just how dominant Jacob Misiorowski has been this season, think again. The Milwaukee Brewers' young flamethrower is rewriting the rulebook for starting pitchers, and his latest outing on May 13 was nothing short of historic.

On that Wednesday night, Misiorowski delivered seven innings of sheer brilliance: no runs, no walks, just four hits allowed, and 10 strikeouts. It was the kind of line that makes you do a double-take—but for Misiorowski, it's becoming routine. With a 2.12 ERA across nine starts and a league-leading 80 strikeouts, he's already staking his claim as one of the most electrifying arms in baseball.

But the numbers that truly boggle the mind go deeper than the box score. Consider this: in that single start, Misiorowski threw an astonishing 49 pitches at 100 mph or faster. That's not just impressive—it's a new record for any pitcher, surpassing the 47 such pitches tossed by Cincinnati's Hunter Greene back in 2022. Throwing triple digits is one thing; sustaining that velocity deep into a game is something else entirely.

And here's where it gets really wild: Misiorowski has now thrown 233 pitches at 100-plus mph this season. For context, that's more than every other starting pitcher in Major League Baseball combined, who have a total of just 144 such pitches. You have to scroll way down the velocity leaderboard to find another starter, and even then, Bubba Chandler's 101.3-mph offering ranks 90th overall.

Misiorowski isn't just throwing hard—he's redefining what's possible for a starting pitcher. Whether you're tracking his strikeouts, his ERA, or his jaw-dropping velocity, one thing is clear: this is a talent we haven't seen before. Keep your eyes on Milwaukee, because history is being made every fifth day.
