The Wednesday clash between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Milwaukee Brewers figured to be a compelling one, as it featured a matchup of 23-year-old right-handed aces -- Paul Skenes and his MLB-leading ERA for the visitors and rookie thunderbolt Jacob Misiorowski for the host Brewers.

MLB sent a message to Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski during his matchup with Pittsburgh Pirate ace Paul Skenes.

There’s going to be plenty of hard throwing in the first pitching matchup between Pittsburgh’s Paul Skenes and Milwaukee’s Jacob Misiorowski. Just don’t expect too much hard contact.
