Watch Ben Joyce throw the fastest recorded strikeout pitch in MLB history at 105.5 MPH

We knew this day would come with Ben Joyce, didn't we?

The Los Angeles Angels rookie pitcher has been throwing straight gas since his days in college at Tennessee, and he brought that heat to the majors, where we've seen him throw 103.9 MPH and then a pitch that was 104.7 MPH.

On Tuesday? He dialed it up to 105.5 MPH, which would be the fastest recorded strikeout pitch ever in the era of pitch tracking. He did it against Tommy Edman, and it's worth noting that it's so close to the fastest recorded pitch, a 105.8 MPH ball thrown by -- who else? -- Aroldis Chapman.
