Brewers prospect Jacob Misiorowski throws 103 mph in minor league game

Brewers prospect Jacob Misiorowski throws 103 mph in minor league game


Not once since 2008, when modern pitch tracking began, has a true starting pitcher clipped 103 mph with a fastball — until Milwaukee Brewers prospect Jacob Misiorowski took the mound May 15, that is.

With a mitt-torching four-seamer for a swinging strikeout to cap the sixth inning in his start for Class AAA Nashville, Misiorowski reached back and hit triple digits (and then some), clocking the pitch at 103.0 mph.

The only pitches ever recorded at that speed or greater from a starter were a pair from St. Louis right-hander Jordan Hicks at 103.1 and 103.2 mph on July 12, 2022. But at that time, Hicks was still a reliever and was employed that day as an opener who lasted five outs.

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski sits in the dugout during spring training workouts Tuesday, February 18, 2025, at American Family Fields of Phoenix in Phoenix, Arizona.

What made Misiorowski’s heater even more impressive — as if 103 mph for a strikeout wasn’t impressive enough — is that it happened in the sixth inning, when most starters’ gas tanks are beginning to run low and velocity typically diminishes. For reference, noted flamethrower Jacob deGrom’s firmest pitch in the sixth inning or later in his career is 101.3 mph.

Misiorowski went seven innings, allowing one run on four hits, the latest step in his stretch as the most dominant pitching prospect in baseball so far this year. It was the longest outing as a professional for Misiorowski, whose earned run average sits a 1.46 with 59 strikeouts in 49⅓ innings. He’s allowed only two runs in 30⅔ innings over his last five outings. Most important, perhaps, given his history with command struggles, is that he has issued only seven walks in that stretch.

The question that follows is only natural: When will Misiorowski get the call-up to the majors? The 23-year-old sure looks ready.

The Edgewood College women’s track & field team has been recognized on the College Sports Communicators Academic All-District Team. Kylee Doherty has landed honors for her outstanding work in the classroom and efforts on the track.

In competition, Doherty (Cross Plains, Wisconsin) continued to meet set new distances to reach for Eagle throws in 2205. The junior punched her ticket to her third NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field Championships in the discus and javelin throw. Doherty finished 14th in the discus to claim Second Team All-America honors for the second-straight season. Doherty was named USTFCCCA All-Region in the javelin throw. The Cross Plains native set the Eagle school record in the javelin throw (43.72m) with the fifth longest mark in Division III at the UW-Whitewater Drake Alternative Meet on April 24. Doherty repeated as NACC Champion in the discus throw. In the classroom, Doherty owns a 4.00 GPA as an education and history major.

Before transferring to Texas A&M, Brown began her collegiate career at Purdue, where she was limited to three matches in two seasons, which included a redshirt year in 2021.

 

Brown was a four-year letterwinner and three-time First Team All-Conference selection at Northridge High School in Middlebury, Ind. She eclipsed the 200-kill mark in both her junior and senior campaigns, and was named to the 2018 Ultra Ankle JVA Watch List.

INDIANAPOLIS – A new era is officially underway in Northeast Texas as the NCAA Division I Board of Directors approved full Division I membership status for East Texas A&M University during its meeting on June 23.
 

As Northeast Texas’ only Division I university, East Texas A&M—which has 14 sports teams—is now immediately eligible for NCAA postseason competition. This announcement comes at a time of unprecedented growth and achievement for the university, including recent elevation to Research 2 (R2) classification by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, record enrollment during Fall 2024, and the largest graduating class in university history this spring.
 

“Achieving full Division I membership is a tremendous milestone for our university. This accomplishment reflects the dedication, perseverance, and passion of our student-athletes, coaches, staff, alumni, and loyal supporters who have poured their hearts into this journey,” said East Texas A&M President Mark Rudin. “Division I membership opens the door to an exciting new era of opportunity for East Texas A&M, and I can’t wait to see where it takes us!”
 
The Lions officially joined the Southland Conference and initiated the Division I reclassification process on July 1, 2022. Since then, the school’s athletics department has recorded impressive performances with multiple sports recording top-three finishes in Southland Conference standings, 25 individual conference championships, four conference player of the year awards, three student-athletes earning All-America honors, three Olympians, and one NFL Draft pick.
 

“Achieving approval for full NCAA Division I membership status marks a proud moment in the rich history of East Texas A&M University and Lion Athletics. Furthermore, it is a testament to the vision, strength, resilience, and commitment of our entire university community to unlock the full potential of this institution,” said Director of Athletics Jim Curry. “We are grateful to the NCAA Division I Board of Directors and the NCAA Division I Strategic Vision and Planning Committee for their belief in our candidacy, and to the Southland Conference and our students, alumni, faculty, staff, donors, and university stakeholders who have supported this initiative in countless ways over many years.”
 

“As momentous as this accomplishment is, we recognize that it’s not the end of the journey, but in fact the start of the next chapter of East Texas A&M University and Lion Athletics. We commit to building a culture of excellence worthy of this achievement and look forward to expanding upon our proud championship history, now at the highest level of college athletics.”
 
Along with an impressive showing on the playing surface, the Lions also took care of business in the classroom, with multiple programs recording perfect 1,000 Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores as well as one student-athlete earning Academic All-America honors. In total, 609 student-athletes were named to the Southland Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll over the past three years , including a record number during the 2024-25 academic year.
 

“This is a historic day, not just for East Texas A&M but for the entire Southland Conference,” said Southland Conference Commissioner Chris Grant. “East Texas A&M’s elevation to full Division I status reflects not just athletic success, but a campus and community united behind a shared vision. The Lions have demonstrated the ambition, investment, and drive that define our league, and we’re excited to see them compete, grow, and lead at the Division I level.”
 

The first official competition for East Texas A&M as a full Division I member comes on August 14 as the soccer team hosts Little Rock to begin its season. Volleyball, football, and men’s and women’s cross country teams start their seasons on August 29-30.
