RE: Are MLB pitchers becoming bionic? 105mph Fastball....sick!!!
Watch it again... conclusion was quite different. This is from an article in Sports Illustrated concerning said conclusion: "The Cuban Missile, Aroldis Chapman, may have thrown a 105.1 mph fastball in 2010 to set a Major League record, but when you correct for radar gun placement, Nolan Ryan's legendary 1974 heater clocked at 100.9 was really the top speed ever, at a blazing 108.5 miles per hour."
Oh wow thanks for the clarification. It's crazy to think that its even humanly possible to throw 108.5 mph. Do you think there was a chance that they were using performance enhancing drugs at all?
