Brewers pitcher strikes out 15 in complete-game one-hitter

Jacob Misiorowski struck out a career-high 15 and pitched a complete-game one-hitter to lead the Brewers to a 6-0 win over the Phillies on Friday night. The 24-year-old right-hander faced the minimum number of batters and did not issue a walk. He threw 95 pitches, 74 for strikes.

Performance details Misiorowski became the first pitcher since 2000 to throw a complete game with 15 strikeouts on fewer than 100 pitches, according to ESPN Research. He struck out eight of the first nine Phillies batters. His fastest pitch reached 104.5 mph against Kyle Schwarber, the fastest pitch by a starting pitcher in the pitch-tracking era that began in 2008.

Crowd reaction and context A crowd of 40,205 stood and cheered as Misiorowski took the mound in the ninth inning. He struck out Justin Crawford to end the game. "When I walked out for the ninth, my whole body shivered and the adrenaline really kicked in," Misiorowski said.

"That was as good as it gets," Brewers manager Pat Murphy said. " Misiorowski has a 0.17 ERA over his past eight starts and has recorded eight or more strikeouts with one or fewer runs allowed in eight straight games, the longest such streak in MLB since at least 1893, according to ESPN Research.
