Brewers fans who made the trip from Wisconsin for Milwaukee’s game against the Twins on Friday knew they were in for a treat. They just didn’t know how special it would be.

On a balmy night at Target Field, with a cool breeze swirling in from the northwest, the Milwaukee faithful not only got to see their team’s top pitching prospect on the mound, they watched him befuddle Minnesota hitters for six innings in a 17-6 Brewers victory in front of a split crowd announced at 28,011.

Jacob Misiorowski, a 6-foot-7 right-hander ranked MLB’s 16th-best pitching prospect, made his second major league start and took a no-hitter into the seventh inning.

“I think it was a good day for Misiorowski,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said. “It certainly wasn’t a good day for us.”

Throwing a four-seam fastball that routinely topped at just under 102 mph, and a slider that averaged 94 mph, Misiorowski, 23, didn’t allow a baserunner until Byron Buxton walked to start the seventh, and didn’t give up a hit until Matt Wallner followed with a home run into the porch in right field.

That ended the night for Misiorowksi (2-0), who left to a standing ovation from Brewers fans, and maybe a few Twins fans, as well. In his first career MLB start on July 12, Misiorowski threw five hitless innings before leaving with an ankle injury in a victory over St. Louis, fanning five and walking four.

“(Misiorowaki) was great,” Twins starter Joe Ryan said. “I’ve seen video of him in the minors and he’s got great stuff — some of the best stuff in the majors, I would say.”

In the end, the Twins were outhit 19-1 until they teed off on Brewers first baseman/outfielder Jake Bauers for four runs on four hits in the ninth.

Christian Yelich hit two bases-clearing doubles and drove in eight runs, and Jackson Chourio and Joey Ortiz each drove in three runs as the Twins lost for the fifth time in six games. Chourio walked and scored the Brewers’ first run on a fourth-inning sacrifice fly by William Contreras, then drove in the second with a double off Ryan with one out in the sixth.

That ended the night for Ryan, who was charged with three earned runs on three hits and three walks in 5 1/3 innings. He struck out seven. Chourio scored the Brewers’ third run on Yelich’s single through a drawn-in infield off of reliever Danny Coulombe.

The Brewers broke open the game with a five-run seventh inning. Four consecutive singles and a walk off reliever Justin Topa made it 5-0 and spurred Twins manager Rocco Baldelli to replace Topa with left-hander Joey Wentz.

Wentz gave up Yelich’s double down the third-base line to make it 8-0.

Willi Castro and Ryan Jeffers hit the ball on the screws — fastball and slider, respectively — but Castro lined out to Caleb Durbin in the second inning and Jeffers lined out to left fielder Isaac Collins in the fifth. In the sixth, catcher Christian Vazquez hit the ball to the warning track in left-center but it was tracked down fairly easily by Collins.

Rhys Hoskins’ liner to left to start the fifth was the game’s first hit. He was later doubled up by first baseman Kody Clemens, who snagged a hard liner from Collins and, falling to his knees, touched the bag with his glove.

Leadoff hitter Sal Frelick started the sixth with a liner to right field and scored on Chourio’s double to right-center, which Wallner stopped from going to the wall but not in time to stop Frelick from making it 2-0.

Ryan was pulled for left-hander Danny Coulombe and Chourio, who took third on Byron Buxton’s throw home trying to get Frelick, scored on a single past a drawn-in infield by Yelich to make it 3-0. In the eighth inning, Yelich sent a line drive off the corner of the scoreboard in left-center of Wentz to make it 12-2.

Topa (4) and Wentz (5) combined to allow nine runs in 1 2/3 innings before closer Jhoan Duran was called on to clean up with two out in the eighth. Infielder Jonah Bride, making his fourth pitching appearance this month, worked the ninth and allowed five runs on a walk and five hits, including Yelich’s single to right for his eighth RBI.
