amazing high school pitcher

[KellGoHam]

how could he pitch for that long???????

[erikisawesome08]

This vid should be called, Worse High School Batters.

[reinkaos82]

What the fuck, how did I end up watching Japanese baseball

[UnwantedJSan]

The timing of his slider is fucking amazing

[getduloh]

the strike call at 1:15 is a good 10 inches outside WTF

[baskbasefoot101]

why do all Japanese players throw junk?!

[WalmartOG]

@baskbasefoot101 i think someone is jelly ;P

[baskbasefoot101]

@WalmartOG i am :)

[WalmartOG]

@baskbasefoot101 is it because he's asian?? lmao

[epod96]

the people that think the batters in this are bad are fucking idiots. his slider looks like his fastball until it breaks out of the strikezone, so it looks like a strike until its too late

[xxGHPlayaxx]

the fastball at 1:13 wasn't close enough to be a strike, but when the umps are callin that, the batters gotta freakin swing, and they only swing at horrible pitches

[jovanb101]

Man i never knew they made the numbers on the back of there jerseys so Hellen Keller can see it

[kulebra5]

damn i wanna throw a 2-seamer like that

[3232mikeymike]

lol the batters are crap...



[tng150]

Some of those hitters have no discipline but that slider is nasty, and the two seam is good, but it's right down the middle.

[HUGOVANTA]

he's not good, the batter are soo shit swinging at everything, but hey , c'mon now lets not be racist at asains, give them a break they cant see well with shoelace diameter eyes

[chazstahs]

@HUGOVANTA you're comment is like opposing itself. haha trash :P

[CameronMcCasland]

thumbs up if you want to know why the numbers on there jerseys button on like that.

[backpayne2007]

No way was the pitch at 1:15 a strike...umpire must be the pitcher's dad!

[xxnyhc69]

catcher points to the third base ump to appeal a check swing from a righty haha

[zerok98]

is that the same batter every time? oh wait they're asian. nawww just kidding

[HudsonJonah]

Thats dice k

[HudsonJonah]

That's dice case

[skaven2100]

A good pitcher will make the batter swing at crap

[lacore1988]

those balls in japan are like whiffle balls, if he was using an official MLB baseball it wouldnt look as impressive.... silly japs.

[then3wbie1]

the umpires fucking the hitters real hard, there forced to hit a ball deep on the outside corner, it makes sense they try to hit the slider, its the only pitch they see around the plate then it just shifts off. wish i could get by by throwing outside balls all game i'd be in the majors LOL

[MrOvechkinfan8]

This up sucks

[666Flipsyde]

Stupid! They edited out all his bad throws.

[BRAMPTONskater]

this umpire calleed everything a strike

[golfmaniac007]

those are nice uniforms.

[Ketterer28]

He only throws hard and can only face righties with his break-away slider no lefties in this vid....

[92carlyy]

the batters are making him look good they are swinging at crap and watching all the good pitches haha



[nlimskater]

@92carlyy Still very good :D, better than me lol

[24playerbob]

the umpire fuckin sucks

[sadeek310]

the kid has great stuff but hes playin kids on a different level,who swings at some of that shit

[MultiAsdqwerty]

geez... that umps strike zone is huge

[nnjjiiu]

the pitch at 1:15 was about a foot outside!!!

[ruukasusama1]

@TheHellodude1 so they may accord to their positions

[inuro100]

0:22 nasty curveball

[ruukasusama1]

@TheHellodude1 i just know that 1 is for the ace

[easyA0]

hes a robot....deffenitely a robot...

[JustynG99]

It's a slider you see the km he got a 80 to 85 mph fastball and a 70 to 75 slider MLB players and umps know that slider is a ball and they would light up his fastball. This pitching style Is only effective in japan

[ixthustruth]

Good stuff on those pitches but he is down 3 to 0 in the second and then 4 to 1 in the 6th...looks like we missed some footage. 

[yohannbiimu]

@ixthustruth Good catch on the score. I wonder what sort of pitches he's throwing when the other team lights him up? Either that, or the other team has one or more amazing hitters on it who sent the ball sailing a LONG ways away.

[iWTF124]

Bullshit calls or what?

[999theskater]

0:41 latinos?

[wcbombers21]

that is one nasty breaking ball dayumnnnnnn it he is amazing!!!!

[deleonericjohn24]

does the umpire see the whole strike zone? because u know how japanese people have small eyes? 

[carmangreenway]

@deleonericjohn24 stfu... racist bastard

[deleonericjohn24]

@carmangreenway you stfu. tryna get my attention bitch?

[carmangreenway]

@deleonericjohn24 you make no sense. why would I want your attention?

[brendancoyne95]

the other team is just shit ..

[KSnumber9]

that ump has a biig strikezone, good pitching though still

[jordy65056]

i dont understand that radar it says 141 but in america nobody throws 141

[Thndr94]

@jordy65056 Km meaning kilometers an hour. Which means he's throwing about 85mph

[JakeNoluv]

man thier hitters swing at everything...even if it were a fastball, it was so outside O.O

[MDFromNC13]

@JakeNoluv The strike zone is a lot bigger, so they have to.

[rtinminn]

his curve is even more sharper than bert blylevens curve

[beeto11]

@rtinminn dude, that comments deserves something....

I'll let you pick it.

[ELDLtenors]

they fall for it everytime! bad coaching...

[xXdowntownXx471]

really all it is a curve ball thrown out side and a shitty ump

[smukdreng13]

1mph=1.60934km <--false

1 mile = 1,609344 km.

1 mph = 1,609344 km/h.

[WangsterBling]

@smukdreng13 why the fuck are you using a comma ( , ) as a decimal ( . )

[smukdreng13]

@WangsterBling "why the fuck?"

did you consider that not every country in the world has the same system of punctuation. Anyways to answer your question, both comma and period can be used.

[FreakishSalmon]

holy crap i can be a pitcher in japan, and have better stats than any major leaguers

[haznip]

@ Jaysfan3003 funniest shit ever hahhaha

[lvvvftykitft5]

WTF is this km shit???

[papermario0612]

@lvvvftykitft5 1mph=1.60934km

[c00lb0y10]

@lvvvftykitft5 go learn the metric system like the rest of the world.

[OpTicStudMuffin]

Lol, all of those Japanses pitchers are gonna mess up their arms. It seems as though all they ever throw is curves and sliders. A good strraight fastball is the hardest pitch to hit anyway.

[89tinkerbutt]

@OpTicStudMuffin wow you know nothing. first of all people hurt the arms by throwing junk because they throw there curveball different than there fastball. if you have the same exact mechanics as your fastball as you do as your curve you wont have arm problems. Fastball is the hardest pitch to hit, but not if its straight. if a fastball is low 90's and has good movement compared to a straight 98mph fastball, low 90's fastball is better.

[cletus104]

they arent bad calls, the umpires strike zone can only wide because he only sees in widescreen

[deeto60464]

at 1:15, that is not a strike at all!

[6sanchez56]

If he was pitching against a us player ( for example: albert pujols ) it would be out of the park

[Tarzoetube]

@6sanchez56 Yeah that American "Albert Pujols" would hit it out of the park

[IshDat1KiD]

The grass. They irritate me.

[neon3188]

Dammit lol....He has that high, fast dropping curve that pisses me off. You look at it and see it coming at you, then when you pull out a little it zooms into the strike zone.

[SG39de]

My slider is better...............

[MrShawnp26]

he has a canon in this video

[21CBC]

got some help from the umpire, and the kids who were hitting...

[piscaloni]

how come american pitchers cant seem to do this stuff?

[erbaylor]

thats a beast slider



[cbburns14]

the whole world uses metric the u.s is to sutborn they have to have their own way.. i live in the us i would like to use metric it uses the power of 10`s how easy would math be? easy

[xfingersify]

the catchers pretty good too

[lilCaucasian]

why are there so many ichiro's?

[TheMushugana]

hes good but the ump did make shit calls

[ChasemeeInHD]

He really has some good pitches but if you look at the score, theyre losing 4 to 1 at the end of the video.

lol

[lobster272]

Is it just me or is the strike zone a lot bigger in Japan?

[axionjaxionj]

@lobster272 It's a lot bigger in Japan

[lobster272]

@axionjaxionj That's not what she said.  Amirite? olololol

[gcgamble15]

lay off the slider man. youre killing your arm

[bartezzification]

i HATE i live in holland! baseball isnt popular here! D:<

[KeepRockin55]

Yeah if he came to the Majors he would get shelled. All these asian pitchers come to the bigs and get shelled. Dice-K ring a bell?

[Grin8]

<:-0 Wow I like.

[ESPsandEmgs]

WOW! That ump was calling EVERYTHING! OUTSIDE, LOW, you name it!

[LClarkeProductions]

pre good. lets see him use that slider on a lefty ha. arnt there south paws in this league??

[beepbopboopbeep]

88 fastball, 77 slider, and 72 power curve. pretty dirty. the slider is straight filth. most american high school hitters would look silly against him.

[cageC64]

@beepbopboopbeep seriously, especially with that command. I doubt there are 10 HS pitchers in America who have that stuff AND command.

[Maudogg18]

Those clueless hitters made the pitcher look good, they let all the fastballs down the middle of the plate go by and swung at offspeed pitches out of the strike zone! Decent pitcher, horrible at-bats by the hitters(no approach)!

[DisgruntledBastard01]

baseball is for pussies. its just some cunt throwing a ball, nothing hard about that. i could probably throw it that fast if i dedicated my life throwing a fucking ball!

[utrules23]

@DisgruntledBastard01 Why did you watch this video if you don't like baseball? Kind of defeats the purpose...

[DisgruntledBastard01]

@utrules23 i supose it does! oh well

[RyanTheGreat8]

badass catcher to

[rolomadon]

Reminds me of Shigetoshi Hasegawa

[mebaran]

His location on the fastballs he throws makes his slider that much better.

[0SeptiC0]

Bad ump + bad batters doesn't make him 'amazing'

[galabeto]

NAAAASTYYY SLIDER

[biggerholes]

his fadtball doesnt have much on it. then again he is just in high school.

[JaysFan3003]

how is Hidecki Matsui Playing all 9 field positions, batting, and commentating?

[haznip]

@JaysFan3003 HGAHHAHAHAHAHA

[OmanPry]

@JaysFan3003 Thats so racist. Plus, its obviously Kaz Matsui.

[MrThekikster]

@JaysFan3003 how do you spell Hideki wrong

[58football2010]

@JaysFan3003 Hideki*



[ROBEEAQUIN0]

@JaysFan3003 I'm pretty sure that's Ichiro.

[420Superjew]

@JaysFan3003 i swear he is playing the other team too!

[FreakyChallenges]

@JaysFan3003 don't you know? all asians look alike and have the same names:P

[TheLuckiLuciano]

@JaysFan3003 thats not Matsui. its CLEARLY Ichiro.

[TheDOOOOME]

@TheLuckiLuciano i think i see Fukudome out there too!

[TheLuckiLuciano]

@TheDOOOOME me too! he's right next to Kuroda

[cochrank60]

the umps cant see the ball -_-

[nervousordo]

Godzilla would take him out of the park. LOL

[BALLERBOYASH]

he throws fast and wild but them balls put a nasty curve on

[67tr876]

This guy sucks

[AloisAdler]

HAHA of course he is japanese xD all the awesome ppl on this planet come from Japan xDD its like the center of the earth.... outside

[SuperUnicorn12]

how fast is 125km?

[overclockeador]

I hate baseball, but I admire this kind of abilities.

[careypricefan11]

@overclockeador how can you hate it? its one of the most paying sports? ;P ( $ )

Its pretty cool throwing 100mph

[overclockeador]

@careypricefan11 Yeh, would be pretty awesome trhowing at that speed, but the thing is that I suck in every sport, so, that's why I hate it

[careypricefan11]

@overclockeador ahh :(

[oopaulorafael]

Wow! This is a great youngster sending some great deliveries!

[david2coolforu]

yoshinori is now throwing 100 mph as a professional

[Thomistica]

i'm 11 and my fast ball is 97 mph

[madmonkey1326]

@Thomistica you wish lol !!!!!

[osubeavers2000fiesta]

@Thomistica bull shit. gtfo!!!

[JinNey6]

nasty slider

[kr3w1771]

this kid is dirty

[damiester]

Whats with all these americans flaming the video, I mean this is highschool baseball, i'd say its pretty beastly to throw a 147km/h (90m/h) pitch, moreover those sliders were killers.

[1outlawz]

1:15 I thought they killed that bitch from Audition!!!

[BasementFights]

damn chinamen with their skills...

[natofsx8]

wow 141 km/h,more fast then my car lol!

[ipodtouchacker]

you thought we would fall for the km thinking its mph ehh?

[chrisalissssss]

Is that bat 34 inches or 64 inches. That was way out of the zone

[TENGMAN2]

the movie...should be a few years ago.. and he just recently recorded 161km=100 miles in JPN, in near future you can see him in US..I guess

[CGpib]

i think the catchers more amazing than the pitcher

[drewnchick]

At :49...did a puff of something come off the ball?

[kscozz2448]

@drewnchick It was probably chalk or dirt in his hand

[308728492308728492]

this guy is DIRTY

[lakeeriejew]

Why do they keep swinging at outside pitches? They're not even close.

[KitKatJunkie]

great slider... but the ump really made some bad calls...

[boomtastic1]

@KitKatJunkie if anyone in America had these ups there would be quite a few ejections

[standby4excita]

@KitKatJunkie nah, thats just what the strike zone is like in japan

[oopaulorafael]

@KitKatJunkie Maybe the strike zone in high school basebal is bigger (horizontally) than the home plate?

[rambo7276]

@KitKatJunkie his calls seemed to be spot on. the strikezone in Japan is larger than the one in America.

[KitKatJunkie]

@rambo7276

No it's not. The plate seems the same size and he throws on the outside of the plate.

[rambo7276]

@KitKatJunkie From the Nippon Baseball League games I have watched, the strike zone is larger and pitchers are given a lot more calls. To Americans, these calls are bad, in Japan, these calls are fine. Watch a couple highlights and you will see what I am talking about.

[ruby1604]

@KitKatJunkie dude its asain baseball

[JCSCougar]

Great pitching but there were a couple of check swings that should have been called a Ball.

[wadtre11]

i know a 14 year old that throws 82MPH

[TheeUrbanGentleman]

@wadtre11 I know a 28 year old who throws 98mph...

[DeclanRays]

terrible umpiring

[kohei0710]

he is already in japanese pro league team,Tokyo Swallows. He is like still under 20 and throws 98miles per hour.... beast 

[hejdk6]

Lol i dont wanna play dodgeball with him :S

[loltyyw]

PAPER NUMBERS STAPLED TO THE JERSEY!!!! HAAA

[sweetchinmusic456]

LOL at the paper numbers!!!

[GETitYAdig42]

damn, filthy slider, filthy curveball, and good pop

[BlackSpider1818]

thats steven strasberg from 5 years ago

[Ch33ky360]

wtf is that guy swinging at the slider started off the plate

[Asrulefool]

if i had a dollar for every high school kid who can throw a 90 mph fastball id be a fucking millionaire.

[mr11fawful]

@Asrulefool not really... it is a rare thing for a kid to throw 90 mph... i would say a a few kids in each state to throw that fast at most.

[mikematij2]

@mr11fawful hell ya, if a kid can throw 90 in high school... sign the bitch. i live in fl so more than just couple of kids can throw 90 in this state but most high school kids are not fully grown yet. i caught an 18 year old who threw in the high 80's a couple of days ago, but he needs a lot of reps of his new mechanics before 90 is going to come. it will though if he's dedicated.

[11skate4life]

i'd be as good as this kid too, if all i threw were, curveballs

[pacodude33]

@11skate4life i feel the same way sadly.....tommy john

[jancam555]

thats a nasty slider

[chadgreenway52]

that slider is nasty!

[golfmaniac007]

i luv the style of uni's. this feels like baseball

[smallerballer4]

Is his number a piece of paper on his back?

[ZeldainPark]

Lol km. I'm too American for this video.
