No MLB pitcher can throw it 115. BTW, 180 km/h is 112.5 mph, as a mile is 1.6 km. If this kid can hit a 115 mph heater, he's going to be coveted by every baseball team in MLB! Of course, he's going to have to learn to hit the change-up. Does anyone know if he was on the Tokyo, Japan, team that lost to Warner Robbins, Ga., in the LLWS?
