\n\t\t\t\t\t\tMilwaukee Brewers’ pitcher Jacob Misiorowski left Friday’s start against the Washington Nationals early due to a right hamstring cramp, according to the team.This comes one day after Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff left his start early due to a dip in his velocity.Misiorowski worked 5 1\/3 hitless innings before leaving the game. The 24-year-old right-hander left the game after throwing a 98.9 mph fastball to James Wood. He then called for a trainer.Misiorowski\u2019s 43 pitches of 100 mph or more were the third-highest since tracking began in 2008.The Brewers have not announced what the next steps are for Misiorowski.Brandon Woodruff goes on injured list Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff has gone on the injured list one day after a reduction in his velocity caused him to leave a game in the second inning.The Brewers announced Friday that the two-time All-Star was going on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. The Brewers recalled right-hander Easton McGee from Triple-A Nashville.Woodruff told reporters before the Brewers\u2019 Friday game with the Washington Nationals that an MRI showed no structural damage. Woodruff said he was encouraged after going over the test results with team staff as well as Dr. Keith Meister, who performed shoulder surgery on the veteran right-hander in October 2023.\u201cI got great news from the MRI,\u201d Woodruff said. \u201cIt\u2019s just proceed here and take the next steps, however long it is, but it shouldn\u2019t be too long.\u201dNone of the 21 pitches Woodruff threw exceeded 86.9 mph in the Brewers\u2019 13-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday. Woodruff\u2019s average fastball velocity in that game was 85.4 mph, well below his season average of 92.5.Woodruff had a 1-0 count on Nolan Arenado in the second inning when Brewers coaches and athletic training staff went to check on him. Woodruff left the game at that point.\u201cTypically, I\u2019m a slower starter when it comes to velo,\u201d Woodruff said. \u201cI just didn\u2019t know if it was going to jump up in the second. I wasn\u2019t having pain. So I let our staff know, \u2018Look, I\u2019m going to go back out, and if it doesn\u2019t get any better, then obviously there\u2019s no sense in continuing.\u2019\u201dThis represents the latest injury-related setback for the 33-year-old Woodruff, whose fastball averaged about 96 mph as recently as 2023.Woodruff had a lat strain that prevented him from pitching in the postseason during Milwaukee\u2019s run to the NL Championship Series last year. That injury didn\u2019t prevent him from starting this season on time.He underwent shoulder surgery after the 2023 season and didn\u2019t pitch at all in 2024, but he returned midway through last season and went 7-2 with a 3.20 ERA in 12 starts.Woodruff is 2-1 with a 3.60 ERA in six starts this year.\u201cObviously, my body told me here yesterday that I need to take a little time here to let this inflammation calm down,\u201d Woodruff said.Woodruff has spent his entire career with Milwaukee, and he accepted a $22,025,000 qualifying offer to stay with the Brewers this season rather than becoming a free agent.McGee, 28, has pitched one scoreless inning for Milwaukee this season. He has gone 3-1 with a 6.39 ERA in eight games with Nashville.Top headlinesResidents jump from windows to escape Milwaukee apartment fire FBI questions Minocqua brewery owner after controversial post about President TrumpWISDOT announces 54-hour closure for Mitchell Interchange projectMilwaukee aldermen challenge new bagged leaf policyWATCH Child stuck in claw machine in Wisconsin\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
