Mandatory Credit: Jeff Hanisch-Imagn Images | Jeff Hanisch-Imagn Images Last night, the Brewers put together a strong performance to open up their series against the Yankees, shutting them out 6-0 . While the final score reflects a complete game from the Brewers as a team, it was Jacob Misiorowski who generated the talk of the game.

That was set from the first pitch of the game, when his fastball was one of the fastest in recorded major-league history. Jacob Misiorowski with perhaps the most ABSURD first inning ever.
