Earlier this week, top pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski of the Milwaukee Brewers was thrown into the fire as he matched up with legendary pitcher Clayton Kershaw and the Los Angeles Dodgers. This would mark Misiorowski's fourth career start.

Milwaukee Brewers phenom Jacob Misiorowski sent a loud and clear message to Clayton Kershaw on Tuesday night when the rookie struck out 12 over six innings in a 3-1 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

After being dismissive when asked about Misiorowski ahead of Tuesday’s game, Kershaw praises the hard-throwing Brewers right-hander’s performance against the Dodgers.
