Jacob Walter Misiorowski was born on April 3, 2002, in Blue Springs, Missouri. Misiorowski grew up in Grain Valley, Missouri, and attended Grain Valley High School. As a junior in 2019, he posted a 9–2 win-loss record with a 1.48 earned run average (ERA) and was named All-State. Misiorowski participated in a bullpen session that December, where he showcased a quality curveball with scouts from the Milwaukee Brewers, Tampa Bay Rays, and Colorado Rockies in attendance.
Misiorowski's senior season in 2020 was canceled due to COVID-19. His chances of being drafted that year were significantly lowered by MLB's decision to shorten the 2020 draft to five rounds, and Misiorowski's determination to play college baseball after missing that senior year. He initially committed to Oklahoma State but later decided to enroll at Crowder College.
