Jacob Misiorowski delivered a mixed but pivotal performance in Game 1 of the NLCS, pitching 4.1 innings for the Brewers against the Dodgers. After a rocky start—including a 12-pitch first inning and struggles with command—Misiorowski stabilized in the final two frames, striking out five batters and limiting damage to one earned run.
His fastball and slider lost effectiveness early, leading to walks for Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Tucker, while his strikeout rate dropped to just 24% through 47 pitches. Despite throwing 94 pitches total, Misiorowski held the Dodgers to five hits and three walks, earning a standing ovation before exiting.
The Brewers tied the game in the fourth when Brice Turang hit a solo home run, keeping the series alive after Misiorowski’s high-stakes outing. His growth this season has been notable, as he overcame a shaky postseason debut last year to emerge as the team’s ace.
