When Jacob Misiorowski takes the mound on Thursday for Opening Day, the Milwaukee Brewers' ace won't just be chasing a victory.

He'll be seeking an $100,000 charity donation from Pat McAfee. All he has to do is throw really, really fast -- 104 miles per hour, to be specific.

Misiorowski joined McAfee's show earlier in the week, and the former NFL punter told Misiorowski that he'd donate $100,000 to charity if the young hurler reached that immense velocity with his fastball.

Misiorowski throws as hard as any starting pitcher in the game. But touching 104 MPH in March? That certainly seems amibitious.

We'll keep track below just how close Misiorowski is getting to that special mark.
