Jacob Misiorowski passes Randy Johnson on historic strikeout list originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Jacob Misiorowski continued his ****** ault on MLB hitters Sunday afternoon. The Milwaukee Brewers ace became the first pitcher to reach 200 strikeouts this season during a dominant opening against the Minnesota Twins at American Family Field.
Misiorowski entered the series finale needing five strikeouts to reach the milestone. He recorded all five before Minnesota completed its first trip through the batting order. The hard-throwing right-hander struck out Royce Lewis and Josh Bell during a perfect first inning. He added punchouts against Kody Clemens and Victor Caratini in the second before retiring Alan Roden for No. 200 to begin the third.
Misiorowski then struck out Ryan Kreidler, giving him six strikeouts through his first eight batters.
Reaching 200 strikeouts on Aug. 9 would be impressive enough. How quickly Misiorowski accumulated them places him among some of the most overpowering pitchers in modern baseball history.

The Royals got on the board first tonight against Joe Ryan. A pair of singles followed by a sac-fly RBI by Salvador Perez got the job done. Then, Michael Massey ripped a double to left-center to make it 2-0, Royals.
The Twins, who struggled against Randy Dobnak the last time they faced him, continued those struggles tonight. They finally got a run in the 4th inning after loading the bases with 1-out, on an Alan Roden sac-fly. Luke Keaschall would ground out to end the threat, however.
In the bottom of the 5th, the Royals, with the help of bad Twins defense, put together a 3-run inning. With 1 out, they got a single and a walk, then Bobby Witt Jr. doubled, scoring two. Witt would move to 3rd as Ryan Kreidler's throw home sailed over Ryan Jeffers' head. Witt then scored on the next at bat, on a grounder to 1st, beating the throw home by Royce Lewis. That gave the Royals a 5-1 lead.
It was a third rough start in a row by Joe Ryan, who exited after getting 1 out in the 6th and walking Isaac Collins. His final line was: 5.1 IP, 7 H, 5 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 3 K. His stuff just doesn't seem to be getting him enough strikeouts lately. Kody Funderburk did a good job, cleaning up the 6th inning and tossing a clean 7th as well.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Mookie Betts backed Shohei Ohtani with his 300th career home run, three hits and slick defense as the Los Angeles Dodgers finished a three-game sweep of the Minnesota Twins with a 4-3 victory on Wednesday night.
Ohtani helped himself with an RBI single to spark a three-run third inning against Twins starter Joe Ryan after the two-way superstar fell behind with a three-run second.
Max Muncy and Alex Call drove in the tying and go-ahead runs off Ryan for the MLB-leading Dodgers, and Tanner Scott pitched the ninth inning for his 11th save.
Betts, who won six Gold Glove awards as a right fielder before becoming the regular shortstop, snagged a grounder up the middle and fired an off-balance, on-target throw to first base to retire Ryan Kreidler and end the fourth with runners at second and third. Betts later made a sliding stop of a ground ball by Royce Lewis to get the last out of the sixth inning.
With the sensational Ohtani (8-2) on the mound and the Twins countering with their ace Ryan (5-4), Target Field was filled for an announced crowd of 39,853 and the first sellout of the season.
