Two Young Arms Rewriting Pitching History | Milwaukee Brewers News

0:00It's September 9th. This is Milwaukee Brewer's News Today, powered by AI Everything Happening With Your Team. I'm Corey with the Story. Jacob Missyarowski is having a season for the ages. This young pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewer is dominating on the mound, racking up strikeouts and keeping his earned run average incredibly low. He recently pitched six and a third innings against the Chicago Cubs, giving up only one run and striking out nine batters. On the season, he's sitting with a 1-9-5-ERA and a league leading 236 strikeouts. What's really wild is that Missyarowski has been making history all year. He's thrown some of the fastest pitches ever recorded by a starting pitcher, hitting 105.5 miles per hour. And just recently, he became the first pitcher in Major League history to throw over 1,000 pitches at 100 miles per hour or faster in a sti. Single season. That's some serious heat. This kind of performance is rare, especially for someone with limited career innings coming

1:00into the year. Records show that since 1913, no pitcher has finished a season with an ERA below 2.50 and over 200 strikeouts if they had less than 75 career innings pitched before that season. Missyarowski and another pitcher named Cam Schliitler are both on track to achieve this incredible feat. Looking at the numbers, Missyarowski is 14 and 5 on the season with that impressive 195 ERA and 236 strikeouts in over 1. 161 innings. It's a massive leap from last year when he only pitched 66 innings. Cam Schliitler is also having a standout year with a 2.01 ERA and 220 strikeouts. It's truly a special time to be watching baseball, seeing these two young arms rewrite the record books. They're pushing the boundaries of what we thought was possible on the pitcher's mound and it's been a joy to witness.
