Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski must shut down Game 4 bullpen narrative with World Series-clinching performance

The Brewers lost Game 4 of the World Series in the 12th inning when manager Pat Murphy's bullpen choices backfired, with Shane Drohan allowing four consecutive singles after a throwing error by Joey Ortiz. Fans questioned why Murphy didn't use ace Jacob Misiorowski to close out the game, though the decision carried risk given the potential toll on the pitcher and remaining bullpen for a potential Game 5. Misiorowski, the likely Cy Young Award winner, now faces pressure to deliver a dominant performance in Game 5 to silence the debate over Murphy's Game 4 strategy and help the Brewers clinch the World Series.
