Who threw the fastest pitch ever recorded in baseball?
From the Guinness Book Of World Records – The greatest reliably recorded speed at which a baseball has been pitched is 100.9 mph by Lynn Nolan Ryan (California Angels) at Anaheim Stadium in California on August 20, 1974. I’m sure you think Joel Zumaya, Justin Verlander and a hand full of other pitchers have thrown faster than Nolan Ryan but keep in mind that most baseball parks change their radar guns to give the perception that the pitch is going faster than it is.
