Right-handed pitcher Jacob Misiorowski has been named the NL Rookie of the Month for June, picking up the award in his first month in the majors.
While he had a rough outing Wednesday night in New York (five earned runs in 3 2⁄3 innings), he was outstanding in his first three appearances, all in the month of June.
In wins over the Cardinals, Twins, and Pirates, he allowed just two earned runs, both of which came on a homer against the Twins, while allowing just three hits total across 16 innings. He struck out 19 and walked seven as he earned the win in all three appearances.
