You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Jacob Misiorowski is rewriting the record books one heater at a time. The Milwaukee Brewers starter uncorked a first-inning fastball clocked at one hundred five point five miles per hour on Friday, breaking his own record for the fastest pitch thrown by a starting pitcher in the pitch tracking era. The Brewers walked away with the win, and Misiorowski walked away with history.
Meanwhile, the San Diego Padres handed the Los Angeles Dodgers a rough Friday night, seven to one. Walker Buehler, pitching against his former club for just the second time in his career, kept them to one run deep into the sixth inning. Ty France got the party started early with a three-run shot, and San Diego has now rattled off four straight wins.
And over at the World Cup, France's Ousmane Dembélé put on a clinic against Norway in their final group stage match, nearly single-handedly dismantling the Scandinavians and punching France's ticket forward with authority. Senegal also turned heads, pulling off a stunning result against Iraq to keep their advancement hopes very much alive heading into the knockout picture.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
