Ol´ Satch is an all-time sports heroe. He was so good he would walk three batters on purpose, then strike out the next three. In exhibition games he had all three outfielders playing cards while he either struck out all hitters he faced or make them hit grounders to the infield. It´s just awful that he couldn't play MLB at the prime of his career.

@@JDP_93 @jwmoor I actually looked for this comment: the movement on his fastball is actually unbelievable. For him to be this age, and still have that kind of movement.... He could have the best natural spinrate of all time. Im actually sad we dont have accurate measurements of past baseball players. But if Satchel was throwing the 93-96 he was poported to sit at, with that movement... hed be virtually unhittable. Not to mention it looked likehe had modern principles of pitching: a fastball that ran, and slider that swept, and a curve that dived. All three directions you want.

Imagine one of today's athletes throwing 3 innings at age 59, in 1965. What a treasure. He said his first professional year is was in 1926. Thinking his birthdate was sometime in 1906, he would've been 19 or 20 playing professionally.

Let's say Mr Paige started his career in 1926, Joe DiMaggio was 12 then and arrived at MLB 10 years later in 1936. Then Satchel does the same in 1948, 12 years after DiMaggio, who is 3 years removed from retiring, in 1951 at 37 and is enshrined in the Hall Of Fame in 1955. Paige keeps pitching in the minors and the Kansas City Athletics hire him to return to MLB in 1965, he throws 3 scoreless innings against the Boston Red Sox, wilth Carl Yastrzemski getting the only hit off Paige. By that time DiMaggio is 51 and had been retired for 14 years. Finally Satchel joins Joe in Cooperstown in 1971. Mel Allen would say "How about that !!!

don't think so...what you see at 7:34 is the shadow of the boom mic moving back. They just used a whiffle ball. And Satch tipped his pitch -- did you see how it popped out of his hand at 7:15? Then it hit the ground and somebody in the audience noticed and went "hoooooo-OOOOH!"
