Was bored and did some testing of how fast a 100mph fastball really is in the game.

Is this at legend, max pitch speeds? I will test it out.

Yeah it is

All I know is DRo says when the pitch is above 97mph you are just seeing vapor. I haven't seen the vapor yet.

Is 102MPH the fastest speed in the game?

Yes it is, and it's more like 97mph on legend at maxed out sliders.

Here is a comparison between MLB The Show 102 MPH vs Pro Yakyuu 101 MPH (163KMPH ).

Last year I complained that curveballs seemed to float to the plate and didn't have that "snap" to them. That's because I had pitch speeds at 2. So the game was unnaturally slowing down the pitches as if they were balloons. But now with pitch speeds maxed out, you certainly do get that snap.

And the game plays so much better.

Wouldn't the easiest way of testing the speed is by timing the pitch via an on-screen like in video editing software? Or is the lack of enough frames the root of the problem where you can't properly get a correct time?
