Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski set a major league record Friday night, hurling a 104.5-mph fastball against the Philadelphia Phillies \u2014 the fastest pitch recorded by a starting pitcher since pitch tracking began in 2008.<\/p>\n

The historic delivery came in the top of the first inning at American Family Field in Milwaukee, when Misiorowski faced Philadelphia leadoff hitter Kyle Schwarber. Working to a 2-2 count, he struck Schwarber out on a pitch that caught the lower outside corner of the strike zone, foul-tipped into the glove of catcher William Contreras. The scoreboard briefly flashed 105 mph before the pitch was officially recorded at 104.5 mph.<\/p>\n

What made the sequence all the more remarkable was that the record-setter was not an outlier within the at-bat. All five pitches Schwarber faced exceeded 103 mph, with a third-pitch called strike also reaching 104. In setting the mark, Misiorowski surpassed his own previous record of 103.7 mph, set days earlier in a win over the Colorado Rockies. According to MLB.com, he now holds the four fastest pitches thrown by a starting pitcher in the pitch-tracking era, postseason included.<\/p>\n

The performance did not stop with the history-making heater. Misiorowski completed the shutout \u2014 allowing one hit and striking out 15 batters in a 6-0 victory, throwing 58 pitches at or above 100 mph. He entered the game leading the National League in ERA (1.50), strikeouts and WHIP (0.808) across 13 starts.<\/p>\n

The overall MLB velocity record, however, remains well out of reach. That mark belongs to Boston Red Sox reliever Aroldis Chapman, who threw a 105.8-mph fastball against the San Diego Padres on Sept. 24, 2010, while pitching for the Cincinnati Reds in his rookie season \u2014 a pitch Guinness World Records officially recognizes as the fastest ever measured in professional baseball.<\/p>\n

Misiorowski, 24, is in his first full major league season after earning an All-Star selection as a rookie in 2025. He is under a one-year, pre-arbitration contract worth $788,300 and has drawn early consideration for the NL Cy Young Award.<\/p>\n
