Pat Murphy and Jacob Misiorowski share pivotal moment in Brewers game
Summary

During a game against the Colorado Rockies, Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy faced a decision in the bottom of the seventh inning regarding pitcher Jacob Misiorowski. Despite being in a jam with runners on the corners and one out, Misiorowski refused to give up the ball, staring down Murphy to indicate he wanted to finish the inning. Trusting his young ace, Murphy allowed Misiorowski to continue, who then struck out the final two batters. Misiorowski explained his motive to minimize tax on the bullpen. The Brewers later secured a 7-2 victory, marking Misiorowski's seventh win this season.
