大リーグは新しい時代に突入した。

100.6マイル(約162キロ)。

ブルワーズの右投げ投手、ジェイコブ・ミジオロウスキー(24)が、2026年のレギュラーシーズンに投げた直球(フォーシーム)の平均速度だ。計1677球を投げた。

データ解析システム「スタットキャスト」によると、大リーグが計測を始めた2008年以降、先発投手の年間平均で初めて100マイルを超えた。

ミジオロウスキーは今季、何度も衝撃的なピッチングを披露した。

6月12日のフィリーズ戦で1安打完封勝利。九回の最終打者に対して、103.7マイル(約167キロ)をマークした。

6月26日のカブス戦では、大リーグ史上7人目の「40本塁打、40盗塁」を今季達成したピート・クロウアームストロングに対し、105.5マイル(約170キロ)を投げた。

08年以降の先発投手では最も速く、リリーフ投手を含めても3番目の記録だ(最速はチャプマンの105.8マイル)。

7月、球宴があった米ペンシルベニア州フィラデルフィアで、ミジオロウスキーは直球への手応えを語った。

「執着してはいけないけど、球速はとても重要な要素。だから、みんなには見えないところで(球速アップに)日々取り組んでいる」

一体、どこまで速い球を投げられるようになるのか。
