don't swing around your body. it gonna be a ground ball. pop the bat up after you have the bat pointing in front of you. it'll make a fly ball.

Then he throws an eephus.

Kapdinna, so like 90mph?

facts lmao

rob lucci You have to do that cuz you’re never gonna know whether to hit it or not otherwise

Know your count i guess

Or batter if it gets away

Truth

pretty much dead lol

Happened to me in HS with Pitcher that plays at costal Carolina. I called a curveball in the dirt and he threw a fast ball up and away. Nailed the umpire lol

even worse if it hits the catcher's thingy (where you put a cup but i didn't say it for reasons)

Imagine him throwing an actual hand dude

The good news is, the poor bastard getting hit wouldn't feel a thing. That's the way I want to go

death.

Insta kill

Imagine imagining

Doorknob Tramp THE CLEVLAND INDIANS BLEW 3-1 LEAD

_Shawarmaman _ And 2017 Chapman shut down Indians^^

@@moneybaggs3976 they know, it's ok, they know, you don't need to rub it in

🤣🤣

He provides the velocity, just place the bat out, and also helps when my Tribe doesn’t choke.. they had it in the bag. Ah well.

just a broken bone not bad but it depends were you get hit tho

+Matthew Quick if u get hit with that, then its gonna give u WAY more than a broken bone

+Mr.Macoroni what's worse then a broken bone? Is the ball going to go through you?

+Jacob Willis you have a good point

Scott Sterling has nightmares about that pitch

i.e. imagine dying

***** , you're a psychic. Can you tell me your March Madness bracket picks? I'm trying to win Warren Buffett's $$$

I did...I just got hurt thinking about it...

there was a batter who got hit by chapman's 103 mph and he looks like he is okay but on the inside he is screaming

@@meltedbutters9821 You mean Anthony Rizzo?

well thats not necessarily true, they key is keeping your head still and eyes on the target. most people pull their head when they throw hard which is why people say throwing harder decreases command

@@LordBurger yeah but things is, when youre pitching at 101+ mph, the ball is extremely hard to control

He's probably on roids

陳緯倢 not sure if you're aware of the video you're watching but they're literally telling you how his mechanics result in him throwing so fast. Just letting you know.

He doesn't really have a Steroid body imo. He's way too lanky. Dude is 6'4" and like 210 pounds. If you look at the biggest steroid users, they're all gigantic. Barry, McGuire, Ortiz (all "allegedly") were huge. Even A Rod weighed 230+. I just don't see it.

Decetop I just want to say , Chapman is the beast ⊙ω⊙

NoName omg

Are you alive in the middle of 2021 ?? 😂

You mean; imagine dying?

In the balls

2 balls and 1 yike!

Try it at a batting cage..

he said ''you MAYBE looking at one of the hardest throwing individuals that's ever been on this planet'' you simpleton..

By the way, it is Tom House, not Howes as mentioned in the introduction.

If anyone else could throw that hard they would probably be heard of by now. The only person I know of who can throw almost as hard is a pitcher who was recently called up by I think the white sox

The Borat Jordan hicks can

The Beastmaster not anymore😂

Cole Perry that’s how he throw s

That's basically every pitcher, though maybe not quite that much rotation. That motion is why pitchers blow out their elbows and wind up getting Tommy John surgery. It's also why not just anyone can go out and pitch at the major league level.

Cole Perry ii

Oof

Cole Perry lle

Validates my memory! I recall Ryan doing 106 televized.

Did you really just say they measure from 10ft in Nolan Ryan's day?!?!? Wtf kind of world are you in!

+HeyItzRyan WHAT KIND OF WORLD ARE YOU IN???!!!!! That's what they did so calm down

HeyItzRyan obviously has no idea what he's talking about lol, they DID measure fastballs 10 ft from home plate in the 70's. Today, they do it 50 ft from home, at the balls maximum velocity, so yeah Nolan Ryan could have easily thrown a faster pitch than was actually recorded at the time.

You are a very precocious young man

Do you know what he looks like now?

No shit. Same here. And that was at about 40 mph. Lol

That sound about avg ppl. I did 63

@@crazyjunglecat894 ok

@@crazyjunglecat894 good for you! Don’t blow out your arm, and also stop lying

@@crazyjunglecat894 you would already be playing in little league World Series if you could throw that fast, 16 year olds pitch that fast

Kyle Hendricks' sinker averages 87 mph. His 4-seamer is only 89 mph.

Movement+ location + secondary pitches matters more

Form dumbass

you clearly don't know anything about baseball, dumbass. The only similarity in their deliveries is that they are both lefty.

Lance Hedges lol

Lance Hedges are you stupid or something?

Daniel Maguire watch both of their deliveries in slow motion then come back and tell me you see any similarity. Spoiler alert: there aren't any

throwing 100% of stride is tough but with work I can get 96-7% for my stride.

agree

@@aidana3761 congratulations.

So true, the guy's pretty much a gymnast on the mound.

Some of the best handballers in the world (european sport) can shoot a handball up to 130km/h ( 80 mph). Now, the handball is 3 times heavier than baseball, and has about 3-4 times bigger diameter (much greater air resistance). I think these guys can easily throw a baseball 100p mph with very little training.

And people say baseball is easy

Warming up properly, and looooooong

Because he gets the most out of his body and does it efficiently

I'm from there

Nah, 2020

You tell em evan

Id like to see you do it too

Evan Swanson cant do that in cricket, or else it would be illegal cause your arm cant bend 15 degrees

Fastest throw in cricket is 101 mph I think. But that's cause you are running in. But you are also not chucking your arm like in baseball, which gives a lot more speed. So it's a give or take between chucking and running in, but obviously 105 is insane, and untouchable in my opinion for cricket players

Evan Swanson do u evn knw how hard a cricket ball is? baseball is for pussies..

That’s not how it works he said every foot closer it appears 3mph faster to the hitter but the velocity is the same. And when they measure speed they measure it as soon as it leave your hand

@@gonery__gawk4138 im pretty sure he means itd appear as 163-165 to an mlb hitter if he was throwing from a ll mound, thats a pretty easy assumption to make

You guys have the best team this year. Sadly that's not the first time that statement has been said and then the cubs choke on the playoffs. Nevertheless i wish the Cubs good luck. That franchise desperetly needs a ring.

Good call.

Zobrist and Heyward were keys. Zobrist jumpstarted the offense after all those innings straight off Dodger pitching, and Heyward riled the team up during the rain delay in game 7 of the World Series. You play together as a team, and this team had the real sparkplugs.

Holy shit I forgot I had written this. I was right! 👍

Jude Law Good thing Heyward did something. On the field, he probably did the least out of everybody.

You mean yankies in 2020carona

and you have to use a round bat not a flat one like in cricket which makes it even more difficult to hit

not really Felix, as a baseball batsman we have a certain area that is based as the hitting zone with the ball coming at you direct so there is less factors to work with(mostly velocity and the swing curves in the air for baseball) where as in cricket, the batsman has to worry about the velocity, the swing in the air when the ball is pitched and the swing / deviation in the ground with when the ball hits the pitch and turns to different angles, plus the condition of that cricket ground pitch ( the bounce and turn factor ) also as a cricket batsman, you have to worry as to whether or not the pitcher is pitching the ball towards your body such as the head by purpose ( which is legal in cricket, to intimidate the batsman). Now you can imagine a 90mph ball which is harder than a baseball, coming directly towards your head, and you have a split sec decision to make whether you are going to move away or hit the ball. I have played both the sports in high competitive level, and to be honest both of them is tough in its own unique way. And to be honest, although there are lots of similarities between the two, there are lots of differences when it comes to the pitching and batting mechanics. Love both Cricket and Baseball.

I hate cricket but then I'm Cuban , its boring for me .

Any sports or subject would be boring if you don't know what its about. Perhaps if you learn about it and give it a chance you would definitely think otherwise. Check out cricket t20, its 3 hour version with way more action that a normal baseball game. Again I love both sports, and I understand that you may not like cricket, but to "hate" it without knowing what the game is about, or giving it a chance is well . . . . . (insert adjectives).

@@416male416 this is a great explanation, thank you‼️😃

Now we know why

@@Boxingbest254 bang bang

if he is then why is he struggling big time

@@cro4194 because he throws hard, not necessarily good. He is struggling probably because he lacks location on his fastball, gets gassed quickly and his only other great pitch is his slider. That does not mean that he isn't the hardest thrower to have ever walked the earth

@@cro4194 to be able throw that hard your gonna struggle with ball placement and he gets gassed quickly considering how hard he throws

Chapmans a closer.

Have you seen ja happ?

Even if he did throw 108, first of all, it was never confirmed, but only estimated. And secondly, he threw a fast pitch like that ONE time. Chapman throws this shit on almost every pitch lol.

Even Hicks is throwing 105 with a smaller body 😁 And also what the heck is with Duran's splitter. It can reach 100mph.
