Jacob Misiorowski of the Milwaukee Brewers lost his bid for a perfect game in the seventh inning of a 17-6 win against the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.
After issuing a walk to Byron Buxton, Matt Wallner lofted a home run to the flower bed just past the right-field wall, ending Misiorowski’s run of hitless innings to start his big league career at 11, the first starter to do that since 1900.
“I think this is exactly how I ever dreamed of it coming along,” the 23-year-old rookie said. “It’s exciting.”
Misiorowski threw five no-hit innings against the St. Louis Cardinals on June 12 but left in the sixth with cramping in his right calf and quadriceps.
