Brewers’ Jacob Misiorowski spoke pitch into existence

Article excerpt

Milwaukee Brewers starter Jacob Misiorowski threw a 105-mph fastball Friday night, the fastest pitch ever recorded by a starting pitcher. Misiorowski had apparently telegraphed his capability beforehand, discussing the milestone before achieving it on the mound. The record-breaking velocity represents a striking leap in the upper limits of pitching speed, challenging conventional assumptions about what a starter can sustain through an outing.
