Kyle Harrison strikes out nine in no-decision

Harrison punched out three batters on the evening while issuing one base on balls. After cruising through the first two frames, Harrison labored through 38 pitches in the third, allowing a walk and four hits including an RBI single by Gabriel Moreno and a two-run double by Nolan Arenado before being lifted. The 24-year-old southpaw got eight swings and misses on 72 offerings on the night, posting a CSW of 28 percent. He’ll look to finish the first half on a high note as he totes an 8-1 record, 2.82 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and a 99/20 K/BB ratio (79 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s battle against the Cardinals in St. Louis.

Harrison retired the first 12 Braves batters, tossing four perfect frames, before Ozzie Albies got to him for a solo homer to lead off the fifth. He recorded the first out in the seventh, then gave up two hits, leaving with two runners on at 85 pitches. One inherited runner would come in to score. Harrison induced 14 swinging strikes to collect seven strikeouts. The 24-year-old left-hander will take a 2.50 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and an 87/18 K/BB ratio across 72 innings into a start against the Cubs in Milwaukee next Saturday.

Harrison didn’t dominate with swing-and-miss stuff — he struck out just three in the game — but he gave up just three hits and didn’t walk anyone. None of those three hits went for extra bases, and Harrison was in literal control throughout the game. It’s a nifty bounceback from his shellacking against the A’s (2 2/3 IP, 8 ER), and much more inline with how Harrison has pitched for most of 2026. He’ll take on Atlanta over the weekend.

Harrison has been brilliant in major league parks, but Shea Langeliers, Tyler Soderstrom and Zack Gelof all took him deep in Las Vegas tonight, and his ERA jumped from 1.57 to 2.72 as a result. There are unlikely to be any lingering effects, and he’s a fine play at home against the Phillies on Sunday.

11 1/2 months after being traded for him, Harrison fanned Rafael Devers three times tonight. He got 19 whiffs and allowed just two hard-hit balls, with the damage coming on Willy Adames’s 368-foot homer. Harrison is one inning shy of qualifying for the ERA title or he’d be second at 1.57, behind only Cristopher Sánchez at 1.47. He’s due to make his next start Sunday against the Rockies at Coors.

Harrison gave up four hits, walked none and struck out two. He improved to 6-1 with the win. Harrison lowered his ERA to 1.57 while he has a 2.93 xFIP. Harrison has been a fantasy ace in his first season with the Brewers. He’s lined up to face the Giants at home next week.

Harrison’s magical season continued with possibly his best start to date. It was one strikeout off his season-high from last month, but was the first time he completed seven innings. He simply blitzed the Cubs with high fastball after high fastballs. That pitch forced 13 of his 19 total swings-and-misses, routinely sat around around 96 mph, and peaked at 98 mph. That is a slight velocity jump compared to his season averages and it beautifully set up his slurve. Funny enough, he only threw two total changeups, a pitch he’d used 17% of the time against right-handed batters heading into this start. It didn’t matter though as again, that fastball and slurve were more than enough. To this point in the season, his 1.77 ERA is the lowest in the National League and he has a 59:14 strikeout to walk ratio across 45 2/3 innings. We could have a league-winner on our hands, folks. Harrison is scheduled to face the Cardinals next time out.

Harrison walked none, but since he also didn’t manage any quick innings while giving up five hits, it took him 99 pitches to get his 15 outs. He allowed just two hard-hit balls. Harrison is now 4-1 with a 2.09 ERA. Between his tendency to run up his pitch count and the Brewers’ fondness for quick hooks, wins might yet be a problem going forward, even if they haven’t been so far. He’ll face the Cubs next.

Harrison walked four and threw 77 pitches to get 12 outs, so the Brewers decided to give the Yankees a different look in the fifth and turn to Chad Patrick. Thanks to a late comeback, Harrison avoided the loss after leaving down 2-0. He’s 3-1 with a 2.41 ERA, and he should be worth using against the Padres next week.

Harrison left the leadoff man stranded on base in each of the first three innings. The leadoff man would reach again in the fourth, and the Nats would finally break through with a base hit to score a run. He scattered three more hits over two more scoreless frames, ending his day after six with five strikeouts. The 24-year-old left-hander is having an excellent season so far, posting a 2.12 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and a 35/9 K/BB ratio across 29 2/3 innings. He’ll take on the Yankees in Milwaukee on Friday.
