Misiorowski (5-2) threw 57 pitches of at least 100 mph, which
represented the most in a single game since pitch tracking began
in 2008. The previous record for 100-mph pitches in a single
game was 47 by Cincinnati’s Hunter Greene against St. Louis on
Sept. 17, 2022.
He reached a top velocity of 103.4 mph while allowing one run,
two hits and one walk in seven innings. His ERA improved to
1.83.
Misiorowski started the game by walking JJ Wetherholt, but the
Cardinals wouldn’t get another runner on base until Pedro Pagés
hit a bloop single to lead off the sixth. The Cardinals got a
run later in the sixth to end Misiorowski’s streak of
consecutive scoreless innings at 29 1/3.
Teddy Higuera owns the Brewers record with 32 straight scoreless
innings in 1987.
Milwaukee took the lead for good by scoring three runs in the
first inning off Matthew Liberatore, who entered the day with a
1.26 ERA in four career starts against the Brewers.
Jackson Chourio drew a leadoff walk, stole second and scored on
a single to left by William Contreras. Yelich followed that by
sending a 2-2 pitch over the wall in left-center, an
opposite-field shot that traveled 381 feet.
The Brewers wouldn’t do any more damage against Liberatore
(2-3), who had a career-high 10 strikeouts in five innings.
Milwaukee added single runs in the seventh and eighth inning
against Brycen Mautz, who was making his major league debut.
Garrett Mitchell had an RBI single in the sixth and Vaughn
doubled home a run in the seventh.
Up next
Michael McGreevy (3-3, 2.40 ERA) starts for the Cardinals and

night.
