Brewers Prospect Misiorowski Exits MLB Debut With No-Hit Bid Due To Leg Cramps

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski had a remarkable MLB debut against the St. Louis Cardinals, pitching five no-hit innings with five strikeouts before exiting the game due to cramping in his right calf and quadriceps. The injury occurred after Misiorowski slipped on the mound while delivering a pitch in the sixth inning, leading to his removal despite Milwaukee leading 6-0. Misiorowski, a top prospect known for his fastball reaching up to 102 mph and a strong pitching arsenal, showed elite potential despite walking three batters in his debut. After his exit, reliever Nick Mears finished the sixth inning, with the Cardinals breaking up the no-hit bid in the seventh. The Brewers described the injury as cramping rather than an ankle injury initially suspected, and his status will be monitored before his next start. Misiorowski was a second-round 2022 draft pick and is considered one of Milwaukee's key future players.
