0:00 / 1:08

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski reached his two hundredth strikeout of the 2026 baseball season during a game against the Minnesota Twins on Sunday, August ninth. Achieving the milestone in the third inning against batter Alan Roden, the young star accomplished the feat across 129.1 innings pitched. This milestone establishes him as the second fastest pitcher in major league history to record 200 single season strikeouts, trailing only Atlanta Braves star Spencer Strider, who reached that mark in 123.1 innings during 2022. During Sunday afternoon action at American Family Field, Misiorowski pitched six solid innings, allowing three earned runs on four hits and one walk while recording nine total strikeouts. Although he received a no decision before Milwaukee eventually secured a four to three victory in ten innings, the stellar performance significantly strengthens his prominent position within the current National League Cy Young Award race this professional baseball year today.
