Misiorowski's No-Hitter Bid Foiled by Injury

0:00It's May 2nd. Welcome to Milwaukee Brewer's News Today, AI-powered coverage of your squad. Milwaukee Brewer's pitcher, Jacob Masierowski, was dominating the Washington Nationals, cruising toward a no-hitter with just one out in the bottom of. The 6th on only 85 pitches. The 24-year-old had struck out the last four batters and leads Major League Baseball and strikeouts this season. But then, a right hamstring cramp hit, forcing him off the mound mid at bat. Right after a 98.9 mile per hour fastball got a swing and miss from James Wood, the Brewer's trainer came out. Manager Pat Murphy and head athletic trainer Brad Epstein talked it over, then pulled him for Aaron Ashby. This happened the same day Milwaukee put starter Brandon Woodruff on the injured list with shoulder inflammation. Us and the team are worried because Missierowski is young, 6-foot-7, and throws gas 43 pitches hit between 100 and 100. Three miles per hour that night, with 54 at 98 or better.

1:02He struck out 8, walked 2, and even had a slider at 98.4. His numbers are elite, 59 strikeouts and 38 innings, a 2.84 earned run average, and a 1.00, walks plus hits per inning pitched. But health is the big question, after past issues like a left-to-be a contusion last August and a freak ankle tweak in his big league debut, also during a no-hitter bid. The Brewer's dodged a bullet for now, but with Missierowski's arm living at those speeds, everyone's watching close as he leads the league in chases.
