Pittsburgh Pirates Tag
The Atlanta Braves and upstart Pittsburgh Pirates played 19 innings last night, so you might forgive home-plate umpire Jerry Meals for wanting the end this unscheduled doubleheader. How did he miss this one so badly?!
It ain’t Sidd Finch’s legendary (and fictitious) 168-MPH fastball, but Cincinnati left-hander Aroldis Chapman on Monday night threw the fastest pitch in recorded baseball history. Well, kinda.
