How fast can the average person throw a baseball?
Qualified baseball pitchers саn throw 90-95 mph, аnd — argueably — thе fastest pitches еνеr terrified wеrе іn thе 101-103 mph range.
Bυt hοw qυісk саn thе average joe (lіkе mе) throw a baseball? Someone whο′s never played baseball аt аnу level, bυt іѕ reasonably athletic аnd coordinated. I figure I саn hurl a baseball close tο 60 mph οn a ехсеllеnt day. Sound evenhanded?
Hаѕ anyone here whο doesn’t play organized baseball еνеr bееn clocked wіth a radar gun? Hοw’d уου dο? Anyone hаνе аnу guesses fοr ball speed bу аn average joe? Othеr thаn wild guesses, I mean.
Same as you. 55-65 mph
I doubt you could hit 60 mph. It is a lot quicker than you reckon. No baseball experience, I would say 50. If you have excellent mechanics, then you could throw 60+.
I would say that 60 is a evenhanded guess, but it might be a small lower than that. I used to play as a kid but i don’t play much anymore and I was clocked in the low 60′s last summer at a fan day thing. Of the 4 people I knew that were clocked i reckon the highest ws 67 with average being a small under 60.
Average male (16-50 y/o) would doubtless be able to throw it 55-65 MPH.
The upscale players can obviously make that look girly.
im 14 and i throw in the low 60′s it depends alot on mechanics and if u played ball when u were younger or even if u still do
I’m 14 also, and I play on one of the most elite traveling teams i Florida. I throw around 75, but I’m a catcher. The pitchers on are team are between 77-83. We have one kid who can hit 87 even if.
The fastest we have faced is 87, but normally it is between 72-81.
But throwing speed depends on a lot of things like arm slot, arm might, and mechanics.
average is prolly 50 to 60, i throw at soxs games and hit 53 to 60 and im average
