Has anyone here actually hit a 90 plus mph pitch?

[MikelArteta]

Anyone?

id be so shook

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Hell no, I go into the 70's cages and I feel like Barry Bonds though.

 

[Jamal514]

I played against a dude who threw 85 with good movement , I can't even imagine what 90-100 is like.

 

[havoc00]

fukk no but I used to dominate little league, Id get my Juan Pierre on, mad bunts and crazy speed

 

[TheGreatOne]

Struck out on some 90 mph pitches. I'd return the favor though!

 

[mr. smoke weed]

i got two extended fam members who can pitch 90+ easy but hit? highly doubtful

 

[fact]

I could hit it for contact, I can hit just about anything, it would probably be a foul or just contact, not a line drive or anything. It would have to be at a batting cage too, I wouldn't trust any person throwing a ball 90 at me.

Yes, any speed of fastball is hittable if you know its coming but I will say that a 90 mph fastball looks much different in person than it does on tv. Ill never understand how major league hitters can turn on a 100mph fastball but would have been equally prepared to turn on a 65mph curveball. If I faced major leaguers I would get some solid hits but I would also be swinging at a lot of 50 foot curveballs and eye high fastballs along the way.

Hell No. Fastest I ever faced when I was playing was around 70. Dude had no control either I was shook everytime I faced him in batting practice

 

[holidayinn21]

yes. it's difficult as hell tho during the game.

it's easier in a batting cage because you can see the ball clearly.

I've done it a couple of times in games.

I played against John Ely my senior year in HS
http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/e/elyjo01.shtml

He was clocked in the mid 90s throughout the season that year, I hit lead off also. He had me down 0-2, I really should have K'd cause he froze the fukk out of me with a good curve ball on the next pitch. But the ump called it a ball so...



I ended up hitting a line drive to right field to kick the game off. Stole second a few pitches after that...

As for the rest of my team?...

Let's just say after I reached, nobody else got a hit off of dude. I believe I went 1 for 2 off of dude with 1 walk.

I got a hit off a guy in college that was throwing in the 90s also, but I don't remember his name.

 

[Ohms Law]

Went up against Dellin Betances in high-school. He threw in the low 90's. K'd me twice and grounded out.
