That grounder Soler hit in the 7th was off the bat at 115 mph. If he could consistently get some air under that...look out for errant boners.

Also his line out to CF was hit in the screws.  It reached The CF in like a second and a half.

Few things are more enjoyable than Soler's Frozen Ropes, my goodness.

Yeah in my book the man hit an RBI double. If you hit the ball 115 mph you absolutely deserve to end up with 2 bags after the shortstop shits himself.

I don't remember who tweeted it but the league is hitting .750 on balls hit 115 MPH or greater.

I was laughing at how much that ground ball ate Diaz alive. Jorge barreling up on a ball makes me all tingly in my man parts.

I laughed at the errant throw but I don't blame the dude at all for fucking that up. If something was hit at me 115 mph there's no way in hell I'd try and square that shit up. I'd have let that thing roll to the fucking wall.

It's a Cardinal damn near getting a hole blown in him from a ball hit by a Cub. There's not a whole lot that is more laughworthy.

Yeah, the Cubs scored 5 runs but they probably should have scored even more. Heyward hit two that were like 110 MPH but right at people, Jorge's first lineout to CF was 111 MPH. They were squaring up Leake pretty good and finally broke through.

Maybe I meant 111 MPH.  Whatever it is, it was tweeted after his CF lineout.

please tell me what the exit velocities were for the two consecutive shots hit to Russell  in last year's coin-flip game, the first of them being an error and the second one being turned for a 6-4-3 inning-ending rally-killing double play I'll sit down and wait for my answer thanks

If I'm reading it correctly, the Marte DP had an exit velocity of 109.4.

No matter.  That Russell was able to start a 6-4-3 on a ball hit 109 mph in that incredibly tense situation (it was the one moment in the game where I felt like my head was going to pop as Jake was nearly on the ropes), especially after having been charged with an error on what I can assure you was a very nearly equally-hard-hit ball the batter before, just makes me appreciate Russell that much more, and that appreciation was amplified last night by the STL SS not only not starting a 6-4-3 on Jorge's 111 mph missile, and not only merely getting 1 out, but actually becoming so discombobulated by the hit that he threw the ball away, effectively helping to seal the game for the Cubs.  I really like Jorge.

It's kind of the new BABIP, if used correctly it'll tell you which hitters are having good/bad luck and are going to regress/break out. If used incorrectly it's just really annoying.
