Sporting Videos fuck your ass boy

[@bluewarhead3420]

Sporting Videos the sad thing is that i can only throw 61 but im 9

[@atismoo168]

Sporting Videos Q

[@mjproebstle]

and i appreciate your pitch, it was right down the middle - thank you!

[@BlairBryngelson]

KZbin had this in my recommended after watching Barstool's "the Rocket" get chirped for throwing a 68 mile an hour "fastball" 😄 well played KZbin, well played kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6qzeGuPirB0osU

[@justinstergar6757]

Announcer: how does he throw a 63 mph ball Me (average joe): Hold my beer

[@PittsburghSonido]

LOL seriously. As hard as I can throw, it’s probably max 70 MPH (and I was a pitcher for 10 years)

[@brandon3636]

I'm happy if I throw 63

[@zirconescalus]

I'm happy if I get 60 MPH LMAO

[@YouTubeExplore777]

I came here to see a 1mph 😒

[@legostarwarsbattledroid5272]

Pussies

[@duncanfromunderthebridge]

1:57 “It’s hard to throw a pitch 62 miles per hour” He’s clearly never seen my heater.

[@joshlanier8567]

And my 2 seamer... Boy you just wait... Because thats all you'll be doing waiting indefinitely for it to come back over the plate

[@Garbgaming]

Haha my 10 year old friend can throw 60

[@awesomeattic]

I could give em a 60 mph pitch every time

[@ragimundvonwallat8961]

me too when i hit 80 im almost crying lol

[@mrbutter619]

Yeah but they can top bout 100 mph it’s hard to slow it down that much

[@johnirby493]

How can you throw it that fast?

[@bradcommalee4374]

John Irby my guy these comments are a year old 😂

[@kristinwyatt3535]

awesomeattic me to but 20000000 mph slower

[@yungchoqquit]

1:02 that’s the baseball equivalent of getting your ankles broken

[@WeirdVideoGames]

It works great if you listen to the snap sound of the ball hitting the glove and imagine it being the sound of his ankle breaking.

[@angelmacias2084]

Broke his fuckin back😂

[@gop4usa12]

A-Rod gave a lesson on not throwing the same pitch twice in a row.

[@volunteerpatriot2143]

Yep, he let him get a good look at the first time. He was cocked and ready for it the second time.

[@madas1435]

*A-Roid

[@DiegoDiegoDiegoDiegoDiegoDiego]

A-Fraud

[@liltexas2006]

A-Rod you see all other MLB players swinging and missing it’s hard hit a homer off a 60 mph ball

[@kenetileilua5715]

MANCHESTER UNITED bigger than baseball? Doubt that. Most schools here don’t even have soccer teams and when they do they’re woman’s soccer. Soccer is a boring sport. It’s a competition of who can flop the hardest.

[@brotherbruti]

The first pitch to Tulo, the surprising thing is not the speed, it's the fact that it was called a strike, jeez.

[@Cat_Stevens]

i know right?

[@joshneraasen7670]

Mathieu C ikr that was in the middle of the outside box

[@harnessedinhopes6528]

Right? It wasn't even close.

[@moegerms]

It's off the plate but you gotta watch the whole pitch sequence. Abad had Tulo reaching the whole AB making him look dumb on changeups. It wasn't THAT off the plate which is why Tulo just walked away without much to say to anyone.

[@jdfagen]

Absolutely. Maybe the pitch hypnotized the ump!

[@keevomora]

Theyre so slow that they actually mess up the strike zone lmao

[@zbproductions3716]

what did he say t 0:44 Eithus?

[@sludge4125]

Eephus pitch. Look it up on Wikipedia.

[@whisperon]

Lmao means laughing my butt off

[@eddyvideostar]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKPGpYxpZrB-rMk

[@bunpeishiratori5849]

The umpiring was rather questionable on a few of those.

[@Drogon7102]

Because it is confusing how much it drops.

[@fatshibaballs]

Imagine there’s a whole farming system for umpires. Now realize all the best ones in the world are in these stadiums and still can’t get every call right. Move the hell on.

[@chiefwahoo1196]

1:39 especially. That is terrible

[@cardbored_]

Watch the first one at 0.25 speed, outside like a mofo...

[@fatshibaballs]

LANo Umpires can’t watch a play at .25 speed.

[@curreyholley903]

In a public little league game I was trying to throw a 4 seam but it slipped and went 26 mph,he hit it 223 feet to break the fields record and juvenile state record. My coach put me out of the game immediately.

[@curreyholley903]

He was 11

[@Lige]

Your coach was 11?

[@CTeves97]

Lige no wonder why he ejected you.. he had no idea what he was doing!

[@kell2796]

Great way to make history bra congrats

[@ItsKryptick]

F to pay respects

[@elong087]

You forgot Jared Weaver's fastball

[@MuiscAndMisc]

elong087 :(

[@BKamin14]

😂😂😂

[@hurakagame9195]

..I laughed for a minute (shameless) #GoodOne #lol

[@JonathanBarrow]

This is hilarious

[@OttoErotic69]

Ahahaha

[@spar0035]

63 mph, "how do you do that? Me: That's basically tearing my arm off 😂

[@AbdullahSayyid]

"Slowest Pitches of all time" 2 Years ago Yeah, not as slow as the KZbin Algorithm.

[@syphonx9048]

The pitch at 1:40 was so slow it counted as 2 strikes😂

[@notnaveen4229]

SyphonxGaming nice catch

[@cerealissoup84]

Good thing someone else saw that

[@ljneubauer5786]

😂😂😂😂

[@MattSkitzYT]

The record is 49 MPH.

[@MattSkitzYT]

Robert Rodriguez I saw it yesterday!! Crazy!!

[@coolguy02536]

Wasn’t that Randy Wolf?

[@marcniemuth5503]

I'm 10 years old and my highest pitch is 57 mph

[@HD-hb2kz]

Nick Hughes how don you even throw offspeed with a 50-45 mph baseball

[@jamesmeuwissen7823]

Well, I can do that!

[@aappaapp6627]

Don't let that slow pitch distract you from the fact that the Twins were straight up massacreing the Rangers

[@mbdg6810]

that was one of the first things I noticed lol

[@DeosPraetorian]

The first clip was even bigger of a massacre

[@TheRmm1976]

1:20 love it when one of those pitches finally gets CRUSHED by a-rod lol

[@ulyg7020]

At this rate, I can become the best pitcher in baseball... every one of my pitches is an eephus 😅

[@harleyfenner1926]

Carlos Liston: Would you tell him (Doc Windgate) to throw me his fastball??? Rube Baker: That was his fastball. Lol

[@wafults3194]

None of these pitches comes close to the "Folly Floater" thrown by Steve Hamilton, then of the Yankees, in the late 1960s. We $1.50 third-deck vermin used to get a big kick out of it, and I recall that it was invariably successful. But even that didn't compare to the almost insane trajectory of the "Eephus" pitch thrown by Rip Sewell, which could get as slow as

[@nickbrigandi503]

I think yu darvish is probably one of the hardest pitchers to hit because he can throw that 65 mph curve but then he can throw a 95mph fastball.

[@emilystreet9750]

Commentators: How do they throw 60 MPH? Matt from Wii: Hold my punching bag

[@viciouslyxdelicious]

OMG THAT JAPAN PTITCHER WAS CRAZY POOR BATTER WAS LIKE WTF SO LOW BUT IT WAS NICE

[@chicagoakland]

That's Kazuhita Makita, he plays for the Padres now!

[@jeffwhite7214]

That's called a submarine pitch, and it's weird as hell. Really hard technique to learn.

[@ganbagoos4082]

miss vicious shouldve been a ball

[@winstonsmithamm]

Why are you shouting?

[@darkarima]

Announcer: "...hit that outside corner" Huh. I've been away from baseball a while, so I didn't know that the outside corner extends down to the ankles.

[@jacksonlandry4797]

Kershaw’s pitch is called a Cartoon Curve. It’s used to sike the other team out

[@nicksacco5041]

I can pitch slower than this, hold my beer 🍻

[@justinbecker9372]

I could give them 40 mph pitches almost every time

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

Oh wow a submarine pitcher, those guys are the wildest to watch.

[@chicagoakland]

And now he's in the big leagues with the Padres. (If you consider the Padres an actual team...)

[@ragimundvonwallat8961]

''(If you consider the Padres an actual team...)'' lmao

[@slavicharrystyles6914]

I was laughing so hard at the Orlando Hernandez eephus to Alex Rodriguez

[@sammartinez7502]

Thanks for not making this a highlight reel of Jamie Moyer😆😆 I do love Moyer though. The best pitcher the M's ever had, all due respect to Randy Johnson and Felix Hernandez

[@kwiknkleen]

Should have at least been in there though. Best slow pitch guy I ever saw.

[@Odin029]

I love the El Duque pitches to A-Rod. He's like throwing that pitch once to me was cute, but throw it again and I take it as disrespect

[@willkershaw7376]

“Look at that he almost broke his back swinging at that thing” lol

[@80zdude4]

I remember watching a Red Sox vs Indians game on TV (mid to late '90s). Tim Wakefield (known for his knuckleball) was the Boston pitcher. One of his pitches was 48 mph!

[@alexhortdog95]

HAHAHAHAHA, A-Roid was like, "GTFOH with that BS..."

[@MasterGaryFan]

That Kershaw pitch was a strike. It crossed the plate belt high.

[@dw1217]

I saw a game in the early 90's, Texas v Detroit, where Frank Tanana was striking out some of the Ranger's best with a 49 mph slow curve ball that looked like a slow softball pitch. In contrast, Nolan Ryan was zipping 95+ mph past the Tiger's that day. Great game.

[@NJGuy1973]

What's funny: in the '70s Ryan and Tanana were teammates on the Angels, and both threw lightning. Tanana then had arm trouble and reinvented himself as a junkballer. Ryan's arm, on the other hand, did not conform to the laws of anatomy or physics.

[@moegerms]

I gotta find this game

[@deadlyraver4454]

@1:38 That was just plain NASTY.

[@halleck3]

Love the pitcher's face at 1:12. He's like... heh heh heh... gotcha, sucker!

[@canuck_gamer3359]

1:29 after this swing they should dub over Mr. Incredible saying "Oh my back!!"

[@greenglassdoorjigglypuffcl4470]

1:38 the count before the pitch is clearly 1-1, but then the announcer says that Lucas Duda was called out on strikes. Anyone else notice this?

[@ronaldandlinda]

Two things, it really sucks that there's no baseball right now and the Stupidest thing the Diamondbacks ever did was to trade Greinke, the greatest pitcher in MLB at this time.

[@sapphire163]

Around 1990 I got to see Nolan Ryan vs Frank Tanana. Both were in the later stages of their careers, but it was still great to see a contrast in style in person.

[@steinyy923]

Ooh look at that sweetheart! Still one of my favorite lines ever from a baseball announcer.

[@normanheggstrom9854]

I remember watching California Angel pitcher Mark Clear (1979-1980, 1990) throw these, but slower and higher.

[@dmichaels4117]

If I were in the batter's box they would all look like fastballs.

[@senorsoupe]

No Bill Leee? Game 7 of the 1975 World Series, Spaceman Lee pitched one of these to Tony Perez who smoked it over the green monster

[@ledzeppelin5647]

Nolan Ryan threw that fast coming out of the womb!

[@teddybotana4023]

KUDOS for putting MARLIN'S ALVAREZ at the END!!!

[@kraken138]

In this age of fireballers, it's fun to see these type of pitchers.

[@MannuhFestIt]

1:04 most pitchers would be excited about striking someone out with a 100+ mph fastball. THIS pitcher made a batter swing off balance and fall off of a slow pitch, he earned that smile at the end lol

[@kylesteinhauser2535]

Arod cracking that eephus pitch like a softball

[@MadisonPozzi]

the one time jon jay was used as a pitcher (against the brewers) his "fastballs" were like 59 mph

[@dhblan8591]

How the hell can you have an eephus pitch video without showing Bill Lee??? Maybe no video from way back then ;-) Thanks for the video.

[@tluchavez007]

The very definition of “That’s Nasty.”

[@ivanloar7511]

The king of slow pitch Stu Miller slow slower and sloweeeer.

[@firebirdude2]

I could see that first one was outside from my armchair.....on the moon.

[@RCKola281]

Ankle breaker at 1:05

[@milesofgamingandfriends4320]

A-rod's second pitch lmao 😂

[@LanceCampeau]

@ 0:58

[@AEHEZS]

Funny thing is, as a 13 year old in juniors these are crazy fast and only the top pitchers can throw shit as fast as this

[@ildibaba11]

I think the more surprising thing in this one is 17-5 MINNESOTA!!!!! Wow

[@TheLocalLt]

Everyone on my little league team hated me because I pretty much never pitched yet I always wanted our pitchers to throw an eephus with 2 strikes on a kid. One year was also told by my coach that he would kick me off the team if I tried the butcher boy play in a game which apparently was banned in our league and is I admit dangerous. But that’s the crazy stuff that makes baseball fun.

[@phosgene2]

i've only experienced these pitches in video games and they absolutely melt your brain. once you see it, you can't stop thinking about it and it completely destroys all your timing. but then again, i stink at those games.....

[@Rumble625]

Phil Niekro was fun to watch with that knuckleball of his. It would drive batters nuts trying to hit it. One player said it looked like a butterfly coming at you with the hiccups.

[@mrmidnight32]

What people don’t understand is most of these guys change their arm speed to do this. You can tell someone who actually has good speed change when the ball does loop up like most of these guys. Also their arm still looks the same as if they were throwing a fast ball. Anyone can lollipop a 10mph Ball. But it’s hard when you keep your arm speed up.

[@brandonhinrichs8657]

I love how every batter looks at the ump like the pitcher just did something illegal😂

[@rudolphguarnacci197]

Hmm. You guys ever hear of a Yankee reliever from the early '70s named Steve Hamilton? The "Folly Floater"?

[@moboutmen]

I think there is footage of him throwing to Ray Fosse of Cleveland, with Phil Rizzuto calling..

[@timallen609]

Roy Smith for twins back in the day. Could start his pitch and I could go get a hot dog and get back to my seat before it crossed the plate

[@ragimundvonwallat8961]

hahaha people are hilarious in those comment

[@timallen609]

Ragimund VonWallat and that was his heater.......I use to call him Roy " the rocket " Smith

[@dbarller]

The umps are just dying to call these pitches strikes

[@thetoecutter13]

Lot of baseball experts here... A change up is about keeping your arm speed and everything else about the wind up looking like you're throwing a fast ball. Expecting a 90mph fast ball but swinging at a 60mph change up is harder than you think. A batter has a tenth of a second to decide if where and when to swing.

[@naturaltrafficlight9448]

We used to be impressed by how fast a person could pitch, now we are impressed by how slow they can pitch... Of course while making it look fast.

[@williamcooke6056]

Jamie Moyer's "Bugs Bunny" changeup was always in the upper '50's...with a fastball in the high '80's, it was a 30 mph difference.

[@DiegoAlvarezBeltran1993.]

Nunez almost killed himself swinging at the knuckleball.

[@seriouslystupidbricks]

"63! How does he do that". Watch me, I'll show you.

[@EpicDoggiez]

See the difference between fast balls and slow balls is, that slow balls aren’t a part of the training. Everyone has no idea what to do...

[@xygomorphic44]

Throws very slow pitch to A-rod. "I'll fuckin' do it again!"

[@abrahamfroman246]

Somebody told me once that a 6’ tall pitcher has to throw ~36mph in order for the pitch to cross the bottom of the strike zone. Some knucklers are barely over 45mph and they break batters’ ankles. I love baseball, just wish the Pirates didn’t suck so badly

[@therabbi9848]

Announcers: it’s hard to throw a pitch slow enough to be 62mph Me, with a normal human arm: ...

[@jimmyfischbeck9872]

Proof that one can throw any POS to the Mariners for a strike.

[@jeremybowman4681]

Jon Jay threw a 46.5 MPH pitch, how in the world is it not in here?

[@thetrashcan5558]

Jeremy Bowman Maybe cause he's not an actual pitcher? I don't know, I was wondering that too

[@jeremybowman4681]

The Olive Tree oh yeah that might be why

[@Johnnydoe33]

Jeremy Bowman that’s my fast ball

[@youtubersingingmoments4402]

These guys are so used to hitting them going almost twice as fast, it becomes difficult to hit these slowballs. It's like when a poker newbie plays the pros and is surprisingly effective due to their plays being completely nonsensical to the higher level guys.

[@welder4life690]

tim wakefields knuckleball was nearly untouchable

[@SMOgamer10]

Them: throwing 50 mph being absolute absurdly slow Me: struggles to hit 40

[@rhpmike]

2:45 "That's just a fastball" ummmm ok

[@Big_al.]

Guys those pitches are so fast compared to my 59 mph throw

[@gamingguy6169]

Nice video

[@Sabercats12]

Former BlueJays reliever Mark Eicchorn throw around 55mph and threw sidearm to submarine style.

[@ringo666]

Tim Wakefield was notorious for a 47mph knuckleball...his forte.

[@alexh8613]

Most of these are loose grip curve balls. It's actually a very good pitch to master. You throw the pitch hard and with the same hand grip as your normal curve ball, just don't hold the ball as tight

[@lane1313]

1:47 He's like "Screw you ball"

[@coreypierce5126]

The changeup HAS to be one of the most lethal pitches.

[@kihlos2768]

The last guy is a catcher so its even more impressive

[@nacoran]

Candiotti used to get down in the 50s. I think he topped out in the high 70s later in his career. That's a knuckleballer for you.

[@fullhousefrek]

Brock holt said hold my beer. The record is now 31 thanks to him😂

[@JP-bc8zc]

DEEZ PITCHES MUST PISS DA BATTERS OFF LOL

[@mitchellproductions9865]

Lol I love how they just laugh at they guy who twisted his ankle really badly

[@sog4646]

Tim Wakefield didn't make the list? He regularly threw in the 55 mph range.

[@daw162]

0:02-0:05 - i see what my teener league fastball looked like. Add five miles an hour for high school. And there were still some hitters behind it.

[@imthatjay]

1:05 when the pitcher lags in a baseball video game

[@user-fl7uq5ew5l]

What people don’t realize is that the difficulty isn’t in the actual speed of the ball, but being able to throw it that slow while also having a normal speed windup. You try whipping your arm like that only to have the ball just die from your fingertips. That’s friggin hard

[@razzo086]

The sudden switch up in speeds would be a mind fuck
