Wow. Just watching that makes my shoulder hurt a little.

So crazy that people can even throw that far!

Having torn something in my shoulder while playing softball this summer, I agree.

Good throw but not even the best by a Pirates right fielder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PH6XJypKno

Major League Baseball (MLB network) disagrees

I'll stick with The Cobra.

Anabolic Steroids are an amazing drug, truly wasted on throwing balls really hard. There have got to be so many better uses for this new race of beastmen that science has created.

Would this have even been necessary if he'd caught it?

No.

I know, awesome throw, but ultimately an error.

If the scoring in 98 was anything like today i highly doubt that would have been officially scored as an error. I have two power points for anyone that can find me the box score for this game. I need to know for sure.

Title was deceptive...thought something completely different...

Found the box score and he wasn't charged with an error. It was scored a double.
