Jacob Misiorwoski Pulled Early With Possible Leg Injury
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (leg) had another fantastic outing on Wednesday at home against the visiting San Diego Padres, but he was removed before the start of the eighth inning when something happened when he started to warm up, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Head athletic trainer Brad Epstein and manager Pat Murphy visited the Miz before pulling him from the game. For what it's worth, McCalvy noted that Misiorowski and Murphy were both smiling during their conversation, and it appears the move to pull him after seven full innings was purely a precaution. It's worth noting that the hard-throwing 24-year-old was pulled from a start a few weeks ago with a leg cramp, so perhaps that's what he was dealing with again on Wednesday. Misiorowski threw seven shutout innings with four hits allowed, no walks, and 10 K's in a no-decision after reliever Abner Uribe blew the save in the ninth inning. He now has a 2.12 ERA on the year and has back-to-back outings with 10 strikeouts. Misiorowski has some of the most electric stuff of any pitcher in baseball. Hopefully, his leg injury won't keep him from taking his next turn in Milwaukee's starting rotation.
