AngelsWin.com Today: Shohei Ohtani throws fastest pitch by MLB starter this season

[AngelsWin.com]

Angels pitcher Shohei Ohtani can really rake, but he can also throw gas, too, which is what makes him such a sensational, once-in-a-generation type of player.

Ohtani nearly broke the radar gun during Tuesday’s game against the Astros, when he threw a fastball that clocked almost 101 mph.

Shohei Ohtani got a swing-and-miss from Josh Reddick on a 100.6 mph fastball. That's the fastest pitch thrown by any starting pitcher in MLB this season. It's the fastest swing-and-miss pitch by a starting pitcher since June of 2016. #Angels
