Granted 95 isn’t what he used to be 20 years ago


What do you mean by this? 95 mph is exactly the same velocity as 95 mph was 20 years ago. Or do you mean that just more pitchers are throwing 95.

Well, he meant more pitchers are throwing 95, obviously. But also, they measure velocity differently than they used to

20 years ago velocity was measured at the plate. Today it’s measured out of the hand.

We rarely saw 95 so it was harder to hit. Now everyone throws 95 and you learn to hit it much easier.
