He was through 7 2/3 innings when White Sox infielder Chase Meidroth hit a ground ball at Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts, […]

History was a matter of when, not if, for Jacob Misiorowski. The moment came during the first inning of the Milwaukee Brewers' game against the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. Misiorowski clocked 105 miles per hour on the radar gun when he blew a pitch passed Phillies' leadoff hitter Kyle Schwarber, striking him out.

Cy Young Award winners Tarik Skubal and Blake Snell let doctors use the instrument on their prized elbows. Connor Hellebuyck, the 2025 Hart Trophy winner as NHL MVP, trusted it to address issues in his […]

Here's the budding superstar's 2026 campaign by the numbers: 0A: Misiorowski has pitched a shutout in six of his last seven starts. 0B: He hasn't given up a run in the […]
