Doesn’t seem and doesn’t sound like 98, stop lying to people!
Looks like he is 20 ft away.
Where is the pitchers protective cage? That is so dangerous.
He has no control. You have to get the location. It doesn't matter how hard you throw
They should make a movie about a story like this! And you know who would make a good lead? Dennis Quaid!
Dude is throwing some gas! Also, did they go back in time to find that bat?
It’s actually a genius move to show them his stuff like that. That just further proves he knows his shit and leads by example. That alone will further grow his company and probably the main reason he doesn’t go back to playing. If he can share his wisdom and knowledge with the “up and coming” and make some good money in the process, then there’s no point of going through the strain of a long ass season again. Some people’s competitive nature keeps them playing way longer than they should be.
A lot of former college and minor league players hang up their spikes in their late teens or early 20s because of financial reasons or injuries. Years later though, after putting on a little weight and muscle, they often find themselves better than they were in their youth. Hey, why not give it another shot?
The fastball might be flat, but man that is a big time power curveball. Straight hammer.
They messed around… and found out. One time for the one time!
Does not look like 98mph!!!
"dont want that" when hes leaning away from the plate every time the pitch comes lol
3rd guy scared. Moving back about a foot each time her swung lol
0:16 the sound of the pitch whistling through the air is so satisfying
It's your turn coach!
96 to 84. Nasty.
My initial thought was…Could that be KPH instead of MPH? But then I did the conversion and 98 KPH is 60 MPH so it’s not. The hitters sure aren’t hitting it but 98 is plus major league velocity. Compare this to a major leaguer at the same angle. That looks a bit slower.
I love when us “old guy” show these pups how to play 😂
95 is the new 90. If your fastball doesn't move you need to be throwing 101+
LOL 31 years old isn't old! I thought maybe he was early to mid 50s. Now the response I saw below where the guy was still throwing 86-89 at early 40s isn't bad but still not exceptional unless he was mid to late 50s. At 31, he can still pitch in MLB but maybe the stamina is the issue.
Since when is being 31 considered old?
31 is old? 😕
bro that curve is effing nasty
He’s him
The best! Talk your mess young guns, coach still has plenty of gas in the can!
Third batter was just terrible
The Rookie V2
This guy can pitch majors im telling u
🎶 old man, throws 98
He won the lottery, then died the next day 🎶
Pretty satisfying to watch the "straighten it out" guy whiff. 😂
31 is not old
That breaking ball has a bite….he throws with confidence and seems always around the plate….plus his fastball moves and topped out at 98 mph….what would it hurt to sign him? Good scouts sign Good ball players…great scouts find the diamond in the rough
That curveball (I think) at the 1 minute mark was fucking gross
Great lateral movement, but that's nowhere near 98 — at least not by "old" standard (Ray"
or Jugs) radar guns. Using today's equipment, Ryan, Johnson and Clemens would be consistent between 103-108 mph. If you ever saw Rob Dibble or Kyle Farnsworth throw, they may have closer to 110.
Is 31 old?
3 Days Grace and Trapt playing in the background, my kinda shit!
Cmon fellas he isn’t that fast keep your eye on the ball !!!
Deeecent.
Need better batting coach throwing down the middle the whole time
12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; (Colossians 3:12 KJV)
3rd guy was scared for his life… leaning back while pitch coming in… talking shit lmao.. bad player
Throwing hard helps but the fact is, to be a truly effective pitcher one must have late moment on the ball. Greg Maddux comes to mind. Greg rarely, if ever broke 95mph but he is the only pitcher to ever win 15+ games for 15+ years.
Song at 1:08?
