Jacob Misiorowski hit the 100-mph mark on his pitches in the first inning. Not one, not two, not three, but a lot of them. Misiorowski left New York Yankees hitters flummoxed as the Brewers shut out the Bronx Bombers 6-0 on Friday night at American Family Field.

This game pitted two of MLB's best pitchers in Misiorowski and New York's Max Fried against each other. It could have been looked at as a game to tune into on the Friday night schedule of MLB games.

Well, Misiorowski, who was facing the Yankees for the first time in his career, must have felt a little more amped up. When he took the mound, Misiorowski had a fastball that was alive. It was really alive, keeping Yankees hitters looking silly at times.

On numerous pitches, Misiorowski eclipsed 100 mph on the gun. Pitch after pitch, he was rearing back and throwing some old-fashioned country hardball at the Yankees.

He worked six innings and picked up the victory, going to 3-2 on the season. In his six innings of work, Misiorowski walked only two batters but struck out 11. He now has a 2.45 ERA as well. Reliever Shane Drohan came on and worked an effective three innings in relief, only allowing one hit and striking out three. He earned his first save. 

Fried came into Friday night's game with a not-too-shabby 4-1 record and a pretty decent ERA. But the Brewers nicked Fried for six hits and five earned runs. He walked three and struck out five, seeing his record dip to 4-2.

Yankees slugger Aaron Judge had one of New York's three hits and finished the night 1-for-4 with two strikeouts. New York phenom Spencer Jones made his MLB debut in Milwaukee, going 0-for-2 at the plate. He walked once and struck out twice.

Even ESPN MLB Insider Jeff Passan took note of what Misiorowski did, too, in sharing this post on X.

Well, the Brewers put up a four-spot in the second inning to just take control. With the bases loaded and nobody out, Brandon Lockridge singled to right. Gary Sanchez scored and Milwaukee to a 1-0 lead.

The bases remain loaded as Sal Frelick singled to center, bringing home Andrew Vaughn and giving the Brewers a two-run edge. Joey Ortiz grounded into a forceout, but Luis Rengifo came in to score and Milwaukee was up 3-0. Jackson Chourio made his presence felt, singling to center and Lockridge scored.

That made it 4-0 Brew Crew and, with Misiorowski throwing his heaters all night long, this pretty much gave the Brewers a win.

Lockridge's RBI single in the bottom of the third brought in Vaughn and Milwaukee went up 5-0. The Brewers scored their final run in the bottom of the seventh inning on William Contreras' RBI single.

New York was 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position and ended up leaving five runners on base. So, the Yankees did have opportunities to get on the board. Milwaukee pitching, though, simply shut them down.

As for the Brewers, manager Pat Murphy was probably really pleased that his team went 5-for-11 with runners in scoring position. Milwaukee ended up with just four runners left on base, so the Brewers were effective in taking advantage of scoring chances.

Nights like these in the MLB world come along very rarely. Those fans who were in attendance at American Family Field in Milwaukee on Friday night might want to keep their ticket stubs. This might kick off a new level of "Misiorowski Mania" for Brewers fans. 

The weekend series continues on Saturday at American Family Field before wrapping up with a Sunday afternoon contest.
