Here you'll find information regarding the pitchers that light up the radar gun each and every night. I've listed for both starters and relievers the top average pitch velocity with a heading for type. It doesn't equate to quality of an outing or take into consideration the end result of the pitch (sometimes really, really good fastballs go a long way), but it's fun.Starters Pitches by Average MPH:
