- Jacob Misiorowski set a Milwaukee Brewers franchise record by striking out the first seven Colorado Rockies batters he faced on Sunday.
- Misiorowski ultimately fanned 11 of the first 12 batters across five innings and 83 pitches, while the Brewers rolled to an 11-2 victory.
Why it matters: A franchise-record opening strikeout streak of seven is rare in its own right, and CBS Sports' framing — performance not seen since 1920 — puts Misiorowski's outing in historic company, giving the Brewers a young arm producing a once-in-a-century line in a lopsided win.
