Historic heat: Misiorowski tops 103 mph 10 times in single game
ESPN MLB15 h ago
Misiorowski became the first pitcher in the past six MLB seasons to cross 103 mph (about 166 km/h) ten times in a single game, according to Statcast. He had set the previous record himself last month with seven such pitches. More than 30,000 fans at American Family Field rose to their feet after every reading.
Reds manager Tito Francona said: 'You don't even feel you can turn the rotation against this kid.' Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Misiorowski could 'flirt with 105 mph by the second half of the season'.
The Brewers remain two games behind the Cubs in the NL Central race. Misiorowski's next start is scheduled for 14 May in St. Louis. The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers have repeatedly sent scouts to Wisconsin in past seasons.
