Milwaukee took the series opener 5-1 behind right-hander Jacob Misiorowski, who delivered a historic outing by throwing 57 pitches clocked at 100 mph or higher — the most by any individual pitcher in a single game since pitch-tracking data began in 2008. Misiorowski struck out 12 batters, matching his career high, and capped a dominant May for the young flamethrower. The performance reinforced the Brewers' rotation strength heading into the remainder of the series, with Kyle Harrison slated to start Game 2 against the Cardinals. [Seattle Times, May 25]
Ahead of Game 2 on May 26, the Brewers announced roster news involving pitcher Logan Henderson, adding context to manager Pat Murphy's public concerns about staff workload after Misiorowski's velocity-heavy outing. The st. louis cardinals vs. milwaukee brewers series carries divisional implications, as Milwaukee overtook the Chicago Cubs for first place after the Cubs led the NL Central through much of April. The remaining two games will determine whether St. Louis closes the gap or Milwaukee extends its divisional lead heading into June interleague play. [Sporting News, May 26]
