Title: Whats the slowest
Post by: vgp100 on 03/20/03, 04:21:09 PM
What's the slowest pitch speed anyone has seen? I don't remember seeing a pitch in the teens.  Even with a worn down pitcher throwing knuckleballs.

I don't remember seeing a pitch in the teens either. Low 20's probably.

nightwulf, is there something in the game that doesn't let a pitch go any slower than 20? (that you've seen)

There's three values that correspond to pitch speed (sinker, curve, and fastball), but they don't directly correlate to the "MpH" of the pitch as we see it. After your pitcher's stamina hits zero, and speed stats begin to drop, there's still a "bottomed-out" point. I guess whatever formula determines the MpH of the pitch returns a value no lower than the 20's even at bottomed-out stats.

I just played a game against the computer where I intentionally tried to see how slow I could pitch.  The slowest I could get it to go was 25 mph.  The problem is...on about half of the pitches, the computer swings and makes contact, so I have no idea if they went slower or not.

Some people have claimed 19mph pitches, but I have never seen anything below the low-20's...
