Brewers Activate Rookie Jacob Misiorowski From Injured List

The Milwaukee Brewers had a wild night on Friday. Rookie pitcher Jacob Misiorowski made his much-anticipated return to the mound after a stint on the injured list.

The outing didn’t go as planned for the young right-hander. But the night ended in historic fashion as the Brewers pulled off an electrifying comeback to extend their winning streak to a franchise-tying 13 games.

The game against the Cincinnati Reds showed both the struggles a rookie pitcher can face and the resilience of a team determined to make history.

Jacob Misiorowski’s Tough Return to the Rotation

After missing about two and a half weeks with a left tibia contusion, Misiorowski returned to action for the Brewers. He’d come in with an impressive 4-1 record and a 2.70 ERA over his first seven career starts.

He hoped to pick up where he left off. Unfortunately, things unraveled fast.

Early Struggles on the Mound

Misiorowski lasted just 1 1/3 innings, throwing 54 pitches and giving up five earned runs on four hits. He hit Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson with a pitch, then walked three straight batters before manager Pat Murphy called for the bullpen.

The Reds really made him pay in the second inning, exploding for seven runs and jumping out to an 8-1 lead. It was a rough outing, especially compared to his earlier performances.

Rust from his time off probably played a role. Still, it’s a learning moment for the talented 22-year-old.

The Brewers’ Incredible Comeback

Misiorowski’s struggles could have easily ended Milwaukee’s hot streak. But the Brewers refused to fold.

The offense came alive in dramatic fashion, clawing back from a seven-run deficit to win 10-8 at American Family Field. The victory secured a special place in their history books.

Tying a Franchise Record

This win marked Milwaukee’s 13th straight, tying the franchise record set back in 1987. That ’87 team, with stars like Paul Molitor and Robin Yount, started the season with 13 wins in a row—a run Brewers fans still talk about.

Matching that mark says a lot about the depth and grit of this year’s squad. They’ve shown they can win in all kinds of ways, and honestly, it’s been a blast to watch.

Key Roster Moves Behind the Scenes

The Brewers kept busy off the field, too. The front office shuffled the roster to adjust for injuries, personal leaves, and performance needs.

Transactions and Replacements

Milwaukee optioned right-handed pitcher Grant Anderson to Triple-A Nashville to make room for Misiorowski’s return. They also placed Blake Perkins on the bereavement list and Isaac Collins on the paternity list.

To fill those gaps, the Brewers recalled Tyler Black and Steward Berroa from Nashville. Both guys are expected to provide some needed depth as the team pushes through the summer grind.

Fans Eye New History

The Brewers stand right on the edge of breaking their longest win streak ever.

Fans can’t stop talking about the chance to see something new in the record books.

The next few games? They’ll really show what this group is made of.

Honestly, the Brewers have already proved they’re up for it.

• Misiorowski’s next start is coming up, and after his tough last outing, everyone’s watching.
• The Brewers’ offense keeps powering this run.
• The team is so close to franchise history, you can almost feel it.

Friday night’s wild finish just hammered it home: these Brewers don’t just win—they make it memorable every single time.
