Jacob Misiorowski, the Milwaukee Brewers' highly touted pitching prospect, experienced a rocky start in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the New York Mets, contributing to the team's eventual loss. The Mets salvaged a split, winning the second game 7-3 after the Brewers took the first contest 7-2.

Misiorowski, who entered the game with a 3-0 record and a stellar 1.13 ERA in his first three MLB starts, struggled to find his command against a Mets lineup hungry for a win. The Mets jumped on Misiorowski in the second inning after a couple of walks and an infield hit loaded the bases. Brandon Nimmo then delivered a grand slam, giving the Mets a significant jolt and their first big hit in a long time. Francisco Lindor followed with a solo home run, extending the Mets' lead to 5-0.

Before the game, Lindor was named the starting shortstop for the NL All-Star team but was slotted as the designated hitter for the second game of the doubleheader. Ultimately, Nimmo and Lindor were responsible for all seven of the Mets' runs, combining for 5-for-9 at the plate.

Misiorowski's early struggles stood in stark contrast to his impressive start in the major leagues. In his MLB debut on June 12, 2025, he pitched five innings of no-hit baseball. Before being called up, Misiorowski posted a 2.13 ERA with 80 strikeouts in 13 appearances for the Triple-A Nashville Sounds. The Brewers promoted Misiorowski to bolster their starting rotation, which, despite solid overall numbers, showed room for improvement in key areas such as strikeouts and walks.

Prior to this game, Misiorowski demonstrated exceptional talent, including a fastball that reached 102.3 mph in his debut. Before his promotion, Baseball America ranked Misiorowski as the Brewers' third-best prospect and the 21st-best prospect in baseball.

Despite the loss in the second game, the Brewers still hold a strong position in the NL Central. The team is close to welcoming back Brandon Woodruff from shoulder surgery. Meanwhile, the Mets, after a poor run, were desperate for a win. In the first game of the doubleheader, Reed Garrett had a disastrous outing in relief, surrendering a grand slam to Joey Ortiz.
