JACOB MISIOROWSKI SETS BREWERS FRANCHISE RECORD BY STARTING GAME WITH 7 STRAIGHT STRIKEOUTS

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski set a franchise record by striking out the first seven Colorado Rockies batters on Sunday, according to Associated Press. This achievement surpasses the previous record of six consecutive strikeouts to start a game, set by Quinn Priester last year. The feat is significant as it highlights Misiorowski's impressive pitching skills.

Misiorowski ended up striking out 11 of the first 12 Colorado batters and retired the first 14 batters before Cole Carrigg homered with two outs in the fifth. The major league record for consecutive strikeouts to start a game is owned by Pablo López, who fanned the first nine Atlanta batters he faced in 2021. Misiorowski was three shy of the Brewers and MLB record for consecutive strikeouts at any point within a single game.

This record-breaking performance is a notable achievement in the baseball world, showcasing Misiorowski's talent and cementing his place in the Brewers' history. The feat is also significant as it demonstrates the high level of competition in the league.
