Baseball Player Throws World's Fastest Pitch

Posted 9/1/2010 by Kyle

Aroldis Chapman, a minor league baseball player, recently threw a pitch at 105 miles per hour! A baseball scout recorded the ball's speed with a radar gun and according to him; it was the best fastball he had ever seen! If Guinness World Records officially accepts this speed, then it will go down in history as the fastest recorded baseball pitch of all time! The record is currently held by Nolan Ryan.

I've seen that guy pitch before! He is on the team of the Cinncinati Reds! Yeah the guy can pitch fast but just can't control it. On a game he walked like 3 batters in a row! But yeah he set a good record to beat.

Whoa. That's really fast. :P
There's no way I'd ever be able to throw a ball that fast.
