Milwaukee Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski just dropped a bomb on the Tampa Bay Rays to kick off the World Series, hitting an absolutely insane 103.5 miles per hour on his very first pitch of Game 1. That’s not just fast, folks, that’s the fastest pitch ever recorded in a World Series contest, period. Talk about making a grand entrance.

A Historic Start for the Brew Crew

Misiorowski didn’t just throw heat, he made history Friday, October 23, 2026. This was the opening pitch of Game 1, the biggest stage in baseball, and he made sure everyone in the stadium and watching at home knew it. This kind of raw power to start the Fall Classic is electric.

This also marks a huge moment for the Brewers themselves. They’re making their first World Series appearance since way back in 1982, and you know they’re hungry. They entered Game 1 looking to snag that crucial 1-0 series lead right out of the gate, and Misiorowski’s historic opener sure set a tone for their push.

With Misiorowski setting a new bar for velocity right out of the gate, you gotta wonder what else the Brewers have in store as they push to grab that early series advantage. Game 1 just got a whole lot more electric.
