FASTEST pitch EVER hit for a HR! Lourdes Gurriel Jr. turns around 103.9 MPH pitch from Mason Miller!

And they’ll get the tying run to the plate. Here comes Guriel who homered in the first. The cleanup mano aboard for the third time tonight. Let’s see if Lurtis can get out in front of a fast ball. He got a hanging slider from Darvish in the first and tattooed it out to left for his 13th of the year. That’s ball one. Yeah, caught too much of the strike zone. Hey. All right. Well, hurt one for our side. Lur is now five games batting in the cleanup spot. He’s got six hits and six RBI’s. 102 fouled away. Just goes to show you the thing about baseball. They find this big gangly kid coming out of Gardener Web in Boiling Spring, North Carolina. He’s one of the most feared relievers in the major leagues. All right. Nice play. Didn’t spill a drop. Tough spot to be in. Down one, two against a guy like this. Right on right. That would have been pretty out in front of a slider. I mean it you got to get ready for 103, right? Well, absolutely. I mean that most hitters that I ever played with that you go to the plate, look fast ball and adjust to everything else. Now, sometimes that’ll change if a guy is featuring one of his secondary pitches a lot in the game, but uh yeah, most of the time you look fast ball and adjust. 104 and he got a piece 104 miles an hour and he’s the setup guy. Yeah. Oh boy. which means they got somebody they think is better than him. One and two. Guriel left field and we’re tied. He got him. 439 ft. Goreel’s second tonight. Two outs and two strikes and suddenly it’s five to five. How about that? 107 off the bat. Turning it up a notch to catch up to that 104 mph fast. It went out of here at 107. Wow. His second home run tonight. He has found a home as the cleanup hitter. his last multi-h home run game May 7th two years ago. Lleair, he’s geared up for 103. Got 90. Mhm. Tyler has walked twice. He’s 0 for one. A two out walk and a two out bomb. Check swing foul and it’s 02. Here’s a look. You know, it’s never easy to hit a fast ball like that. Our Chaz Roberts Air Conditioning and Plumbing cool play of the game, the game tying home run. It’s never easy to catch up to that. But after you’ve seen a few of them and fouled them off, okay, I need to be a little bit quicker. I need to be a little bit quicker. I need to start a little bit sooner. Whatever the adjustment is, Lord has fouled off a couple of tough ones and finally got one he could lay on. Right at you almost. Burriel has driven in four of their five runs. A two-run homer in the first and another one in the eighth. And somehow they have only five hits, but we’re all tied up. Two of them are Guriel homers. Tyler doesn’t bite out there. 102. Two balls and two strikes on the diamond back first baseman. McCarthy on deck. That was their first base hit since Jos Herrera’s single in the fifth. 103 at the belt. Rodomo makes it happen with a two-on walk and Guriel gets 104 and hits it 439. We are tied at five at Chase.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr.’s game-tying home run came on the fastest pitch homered on in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008)

  1. Was that first pitch rly called a ball tho 😂 smh automated balls and strikes next year. Umps r historically bad this year it's crazy. This way we won't have to worry if they r gambling on it and the hitter or pitcher can challenge and win a ridiculous call like that first pitch.

  2. Lourdes is one of my two favourite ex-Blue Jays, along with Teoscar Hernandez. Lourdes has always had great bat-to-ball skills and a fast swing. If anyone is hitting 104, it's him.
