October 22, 201510 yr In 4 of the last 5 seasons the team with the highest average MPH made the World Series. Power pitching helps get you there.
October 25, 201510 yr KC is in the top 5 in hitting in Avg/Slug/ and something else vs 95+ MPH pitches. I'll see if I can find the stat.
October 25, 201510 yr Author KC is in the top 5 in hitting in Avg/Slug/ and something else vs 95+ MPH pitches. I'll see if I can find the stat. I posted that stat somewhere. KC has the best batting average in MLB against 95+ MPH fastballs .
October 25, 201510 yr Here it is... @jeffPassan Royals vs. 95-mph+ pitches, MLB ranks in parentheses: BA: .284 (1st) SLG: .432 (2nd) K%: 15.1% (1st) Mets throw the most 95-mph+ pitches.
October 29, 201510 yr Fastball is doing nothing for the Mets. KC didn't swing and miss one fastball last night.
October 29, 201510 yr They had some stat last night about the number of pitches that both Harvey and deGrom had thrown with two strikes AND the KC batters had swung and missed. It was a crazy, crazy number. Wish I could find it.
October 29, 201510 yr If I heard it correctly this morning on the radio. In the five innings deGrom pitched. KC had 23 foul balls and 3 swinging strikes. They really made him work.
