You’ve seen it in the majors: Thanks to umpire cam on Sunday Night Baseball, you get to be in the batter’s place and see what it’s like to try to hit absurd pitches from stars like Spencer Strider and rookies like Bobby Miller.
But let’s take a moment and remember that college pitchers throw triple digits too, which we saw from Florida’s Brandon Sproat, who was a New York Mets draft pick in 2022.
He threw 101 MPH in the College World Series and ump cam shows you how hard it is to decide what to do when it’s right on the corner:

Good luck with that.
