Jacob Misiorowski throws 5 2/3 scoreless innings to clinch the World Series for the Brewers
The Brewers ace hit 103 mph twice and allowed just two hits in Game 5 before a calf cramp. He finished the postseason 2-0 with a 1.89 ERA.

Jacob Misiorowski gave the Milwaukee Brewers exactly what they needed. The young ace threw 5 2/3 scoreless innings as Milwaukee beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in Game 5 to win the World Series.
Misiorowski allowed just two hits. He left with two outs in the sixth inning because of a cramp in his right calf. The Brewers fans behind the dugout gave him a standing ovation.
"I don't even have words," Misiorowski said. "It's amazing, just watching my guys celebrate. And the city. I know they're going crazy in Milwaukee. It's awesome."
Pure heat
The 24-year-old opened the game with 12 straight four-seam fastballs between 100.9 and 103 mph. He reached 103 twice among his 86 pitches.
He already broke the World Series velocity record with a 103.5 mph fastball on the first pitch of the series last Friday.
He only struck out two batters, which matched his career low. He pumped his fist and punched the air after Yandy Díaz missed a cutter to end the fifth.
His longest night of October
It was the first time Misiorowski pitched past the fifth inning in these playoffs. Leg cramps also forced him out of two starts earlier in the season.
He finished the postseason 2-0 with a 1.89 ERA. The two-time All-Star will forever be the winning pitcher in the game that gave Milwaukee its first title.
