MLB Insane Slow Pitches

[@JH-dr4xo]

An Eephus pitch in baseball is considered a "junk" pitch with very low speed. The delivery from the pitcher has very low velocity and usually catches the hitter off-guard.

[@SirNerrad]

Thanks for the explanation!

[@WyWid]

Thanks for that. I was wondering that as I didn’t even know how to spell it to google it hahah

[@nts4906]

Yes. It is high risk because if the batter is ready for it, it should be an easy hit or home run,

[@bigbowl37]

"It's hard to throw a pitch 62 mph." Me: "No kidding"

[@markdubois4882]

My fastball is only 66 MPH......the Corkscrew on the other hand.....below 40.

[@SWEENEY17]

@@markdubois4882 i doubt that lol

[@markdubois4882]

@@SWEENEY17 I think I might know something about it. 40 MPH would cover the 60'6" distance in just over one full second (1.031)

[@VikingsDucks]

Yeah my fastball is probably 55 at most

[@mrbully]

Love the Eephus, maybe because it's the one pitch I could also do hahaha. Wish we'd see it a little more often

[@Igotnicebum]

Their slowest pitch is faster than my fastest ever pitch thrown.

[@wakeupsweep9731]

lol 😂

[@nolanladell2869]

Yeah, I give it all I've got and hit 55.

[@denniswaynepennenga3700]

Me too...and it hurts....LMAO!!!

[@gruntskilling]

Amazing seeing these "slow" pitches. Mlb'ers get used to seeing 80 to 100 mph and a mid to high 50s is incredibly difficult to adjust to

[@tj5912]

Is it possible to do a video on protested games that were actually replayed? I think there are only 15.

[@Audiomancer]

I like it when the batter already has a "wtf" reaction before the catcher even catches it.

[@Grandizer8989]

You know it’s slow when the announcer can get out ‘There it is’ before the ball reaches the plate

[@VoxRox1]

0:04 batter asks catcher-“was that his change up?” Catcher reply’s “nope,that’s his fastball “.

[@jaybrown4526]

Bwahahaha!!! Reminds me of that Bugs Bunny cartoon... "One two three strikes you're out!! One two three strikes you're out!! One two three strikes you're out!!" LOL!!

[@arandombard1197]

I love watching the batter begin the swing and then stop, because they've fired it way too fast. Then it's just too late to reset the swing and hit the ball.

[@bubbahyde322]

Might not have mph but he's got rpm. That's where it's at in '21

[@garymeredith2441]

I think this is fabulous I love it when I see these eephus pitchers they freeze these matters solid these batters are sitting there waiting on a 95 mile an hour ball to come their way and then a 50 mile an hour ball is what they see they look at the Empire and they said what the he'll was that .

[@blu3collar949]

It's good to know that my 12 year old grand son has a chance to pitch in the majors some day.

[@dave929]

Oldies but goodies...... Should find the one in the ‘75 World Series. Red Sox pitcher throws it, but the batter was ready and crushed it for a home run.

[@tomchevalier5491]

I remember Yankees pitcher Steve Hamilton throwing the folley floater that was very hard to hit

[@CannaKoffing]

Id love to see more slow pitches that throw batters off looks so good.

[@baseballdude13000]

There's also that time DJ LeMahieu went deep on a 48 mph pitch

[@mikeropaynus410]

That’s me at power level 9000

[@CHENOTV]

@0:33 he swung at that 😂

[@Seaoftea]

I love the batters reactions.. like WTF was that man?

[@johnnyarbo3]

How is a 74mph pitch slow???

[@evansokolson9221]

Cause these guys throw anywhere between 89 and 101 on the regular

[@WyWid]

@@evansokolson9221 pfff I’ve got 64 on wii baseball before

[@generalbullmoose]

That was a fastball for Randy Jones and Geoff Zahn.

[@SIMONP1965]

Because in Texas 74mph is legal and 95 gets you a ticket... 😁

[@jonnuanez2843]

2:28 Is this from the same game where Zack had the ground crew fix the mound?

[@Lebronisthegoat3]

I think so

[@JimConner777]

This was funny.... i am not old school, like black and white old school but i do like 70 - 2000’s announcers. You have any of them? Whether their catch phrases, or something that may have put them on the map. Think Mel Allen or Dave Neihause. Just askin.

[@markdubois4882]

Ernie Harwell

[@carlosmontgomery1820]

Announcer: Did that even register? LMAO

[@dznArro]

0:35😂😂😂

[@kentleytaggart5816]

That is awsome ,good trick😃😃😃😃

[@bobmalack481]

..now a good 57 mph screwball, forkball, knuckleball, or knuckle curve can 'F up the best of them.

[@3YearsApart1613]

59 mhp is my best stuff.

[@WyWid]

Are you a softball player ?

[@dadbot8480]

PURE GAS

[@mariomanganiello3801]

surprised their are no knuckleball pitchers here those are some slow ones

[@ncvman]

Do you swing and miss or just let it go by and get a strike. I think it’s a lose lose situation, you will look bad either way.

[@milesshaw9059]

You could also call this an Eephus

[@Whowhatwherewhy]

Wonder how the ball makes it to the plate.

[@isaalb33]

Yeah it's slow but spinning ball if he hits the ball never reach the middle off the park

[@kennybotelho6828]

It's hard to throw 62?!! Are you kidding me. 😳

[@windwhipped5]

It would be unprofessional to swing at a meatball on the first pitch?? There are very few free swingers in the MLB anymore..

[@raymars23]

Jayson Werth: Why...?

[@willsevy7836]

Werth 2 ina row

[@lilyt..]

Why does no one hit these?

[@BigRedOne54]

Isnt that first clip of greinke when he just called maldonado over to make a fantasy trade?

[@gripkey]

Good vid

[@josephukedaddy0548]

What? It's HARD to throw a pitch 62 mph?? That's all I can throw😂

[@spicklesbaseball]

74 isn’t slow… 😥🥺😭

[@themapletree2310]

make your own team and stadium then roll a dice to see how good they are

[@bingoman1466]

My comment is #62 🤣

[@bobmalack481]

Why does it need to be 95/98 mph..at least all the time?

[@rickjames4005]

So apparently I'm clueless, why aren't they swinging at them

[@noneyabizz8337]

They're use to the timing of a faster ball.

[@trellontop6962]

first

[@Plan_Delta]

애지간한 배짱으론 못하지

[@jonnyw.2333]

You call that slow?

[@benjaminraymundo6711]

It is
