Jaeger Sports Baseball Student China McCarney Brings The Heat: 97mph Arm Strength &Velocity

[VenTiion]

He was getting a running start lol wtf?

[dude58677]

Wow! That's impressive. What round did he go in?

[pshups]

You dudes are haters. Because u throw 81-83 on a good day and will probly be playin industrial league softball in a few years. U hate on this young man maybe u should find out what he is doing so u won't be a senior starting J.V. AND keeping the book for your varsity team. To the flamethrower. Flame on pimp !!!!

[jpaiken15]

We clock with the same gun in our sports facility here in town. My coach threw 95 before he had to have tommy john

[jambowowow]

Jaeger Sports rocks. Just saying.

[TopGearDog431]

I bet the bloke with speed gun was a tad nervous.

[a552bcx]

how's his ball controll, because that's more important.

[slightlyhumanify]

Is his name China, or did he just throw the ball to China?

[SimpleStuff31]

i can throw a ball long toss just over 300 feet, how hard would that translate to?

[cfl990]

@SimpleStuff31 its not that easy to figure out at all way too many factors



[SimpleStuff31]

it was like a 96 mph slider!

[iTspino7x]

@TWHS2010.. He might have touched 97.. but remember he's basically crow hopping and give him more velocity. Maybe off the mound he's 89-90

[supertasticguy]

TOUCHDOWN! 

[baseballkilla17]

Check out my video of me throwing 94mph

[flavoroflove5]

@baseballkilla17 bro ur a fuckin arrogant asshole. i hope ur teammates at ucf can see ur videos to see how arrogant u are and i guarantee u they throw way faster than u there. u cant even hit 94 on the mound asshole. how many other videos do u have to comment and say "check out my video of me throwin 90 cuz im so good" arrogant piece of shit

[baseballkilla17]

@flavoroflove5 Hey hater, where you going to college? 

[flavoroflove5]

@baseballkilla17 idk im a sophmore in high school. and im too busy playin baseball and not filming myself throwing the ball as hard as i can and braggin on every pitching video saying i throw 94.

[baseballkilla17]

@flavoroflove5 Dude chill out! Why hate? Ive been doing jaegers long toss program and its helped me alot im not bragging! I throw 90-93mph off the mound!

[flavoroflove5]

@baseballkilla17 bro im 16 and ur a grown ass man goin to play baseball in college and i give u all the respect for that. wat i dont respect is that u r bragging. just cause u throw hard means u have to film it and tell everybody to look at it?

[Galiento]

Great arm! However, probably won't make any money off it. Lot's of guy's out there can throw 97 with a crow hop. Well, not lot's but enough that it still takes a lot of work to be a great pitcher.

[Swordsfor200Alex]

All you douche bags believe this sh*t - My buddy has a Juggs gun from when he was on the highway patrol. You can set the span control and calibrate it up to whatever you want the baseline to be. You can set zero mph at 50 mph so it really reads 47mph as 97 mph. It just adds the mph to whatever the basline is set at. ROFL It is physically impossible to throw a hollow plastic ball with holes in it creating drag and weighs just a few ounces over 55+ mph.

[itachi7875]

@Swordsfor200Alex ...its legit man, stop hating, the kid throws gas and you can't. He's throwing a normal.

[FeeneyMan18]

damn.... and i can only throw 70...

thats crazy

[BrandonRaz]

seems like hes more happier at 96 rather than 97, haha

[epicpringles]

this dude is bringin it, i bet he throws low 90's from the tit

[zzhate]

he crow hops to take stress off the arm.. i bet he throws low to mid 90's off a mound.. cause you still have the downhill angle and more momentum.. it pry translates to about the same speed

[quadfan96]

thats some high octane fuel there partner

[jow43]

i love the sound of the wizz coming of the baseball...you dont even need a radar gun and you will know that hes throwin gas

[benmahesh]

it is. like i wanna try my velocity from the outfield cause i throw alot harder from distance like that

[rsafranco3]

its cuz he is fucking pumping, but still 97 impressive

[saltothemacchia]

96 was insane!!

[ZW1791]

The one he threw 96 had so much movement. Does anyone know how hard this guy can throw from a mound?

[Dunjock]

@ZW1791 94 Boss

[99Silverado53]

Damn the 96 mph looks like it just explodes towards the mitt

[SBucK777]

i wonder if he can hit 90 without a little crow hop.

[baseballkilla17]

i did sort of the same thing and my velo is up to 92 mph

[MugiwaraLuffy01]

I'm 15 and just started playing baseball last year and clocked 145km/h...how can i

increase my speed to 150's?Plz help me...

[bman231]

post a video of you throwing and i will critique your posture and grips and wind up. Ok also work out to I got around 93 then i hurt my shoulder it popped out now i do to get through a game of catch

[bspinner63]

i only throw 58 working on velocity though btw im 12

[Thomistica]

Buddy with the radar gun has balls for standing that close to the catcher.

[redblackH]

I'm 12 and thrw 63-66. WoOP WOOP, ahaaahah

[i8alawngnome]

haha thats good

[redblackH]

Yeah ik.

[abenge11]

fag no you cant, you cunt

[redblackH]

why do u think that? cuz when u were 12 u only threw 50?

[abenge11]

i am 12 and i went to velocity sports a couple days ago and i threw 60, 61, then i crow hopped 62

[bigghitter7]

OFF THE CROW HOP. theres a freshman on my team that throws 89 off the wind up.

[casurfer21]

he throws mid 90's off the mound. you. are. gay.

[codyman019]

look he is crow hopping. i'd like to see how hard he throws off the mound bcuz i know guys that throw 92 from the outfield but off the mound they are 82. you have to understand that it is a lot harder to accelerate the ball from a dead stop then from a crow hop.

[casurfer21]

he plays at csun..look him up fag.

[Mrk4488]

A couple of those were not legal windups, possibly none of them depending on how the video was edited. Nice arm either way though.

[ajg366]

Hes throwing across his body. He could probably get another 1-2 mph.

[drewbell88]

Giggles...Thats so true SvNset.  Just let your actions do the talking

[SvNsEt]

haha everyone here has to brag about there speed... Its pretty sad. It doesnt matter how much you brag about your velocity, its not going to get you to the show... So you guys should probly just keep that to yourselves.

[casurfer21]

just cause YOU couldnt make it doesn mean you have to be a dick to everyone else. later.

[SvNsEt]

... Cause I couldnt make it? I'm not even old enough to make it yet. I'm hardly 18, and I am doing perfectly well with my velocity thank you. And if that second comment was for me too... I was gunned by a group of pro scouts when I was 17 and was consistent around 88-91... Thats without the exageration.

[kipdip24]

im at about 84-85 age 16

[casurfer21]

everyone exaggerates their velocity by about 5 miles. aka you top at 80, thanks for playing.

[drewbell88]

Dude Opening Day got me so pumped!!!! Im so stoked for the tryouts comin up!

[ZeppelinFreak13]

i can maybe top out on a good day on a crow hop maybe 77-78.

p.s im 13

[TopProspect15]

I still watch this video after ive seen it like 50 times, WOW.. Keep it up man

[golfr7k1]

the 96mph one looked like a cutter

[2fly4u15]

still guys... 96 is fast even for a crowhop.

[zach01488]

well i throw 100 so he still good

[2fly4u15]

so youre in the majors? doubt it.

[eating123321]

好快喔 @@

[Prh537]

you can throw harder from a crow hop anyways I throw 94-95 from a crow hop and sit 89-92... big deal

[redraiders07]

Well, I hope to see you in the majors someday then...

[tim191219]

If you sit 89-92, which IS a big deal, you are either a professional baseball player or someone who could not make it as a pro. most likely your just a bullshitter like everyone on here.

[drewbell88]

So are you tryin to say this vid is BS??

[tim191219]

Not at all, are you drunk? Im telling prh537 theres no way he throw 89-92

[Prh537]

I'm pitching in college right now you idiot...... maybe you'll see my name in this years draft

[drewbell88]

how come prh537 cant throw that fast?? I have thrown over 90mph. im sure he could and you might be able to as well ....so whats the big deal bro

[luketic24]

U HAD A HAT TRICK AGAINST ME IN THE PCBL

[Gilb604]

does he still play?

and can one do the bands everyday or on consecutive days?

[xbaseballer9120x]

I played China my fresh/soph year in HS

Didn't he get all caught up and stopped?

Now he is back says my friend.

[danmaster90]

god damn that 96 was a heat seeker

[TWHS2010]

agree with long toss program and bands. Strengthens the arm and definitely keeps the arm healthy. However, this kid does not throw 97 mph when i saw a different video. I went and looked up his draft video for the 2008 draft where he was picked by the indians and he was 89-90 mostly. Could that be because he may not have warmed up properly? this is clearly gas. just curious

[jaegersports]

Hi..he may have been at 89-90 on some draft videos, but he was at least 94 in the fall at College of the Canyons...thanks for the feedback

[maniac4lyfe]

not to mention just letting it loose to see how hard you can throw is much different from pitching in a game.. twhs2010 still has 2 more years of grade school to go, and he probably still cant touch 80

[benmahesh]

he's crow-hoppin on the throws. thats probly where the rest of it is comin from. idk for sure though

[igotbling4]

@TWHS2010 he is momentum throwing he obviusly doesnt throw that off the mound.

[10231js]

@TWHS2010 uhhhh i'm pretty sure he is crow-hopping when he hits 97 here...he does not deliver from a stationary position.

[truck2430]

wow it looks like he has a natural curve to it. amazing

[jaegersports]

First of all, that is outstanding that you are able to go foul pole to foul pole. As for why it's not translating completely, you'd have to be seen in person to see what may be going on. For example, if you are throwing 300 or 330 feet, you may be decelerating your arm (easing up) as you make your way back to your partner. Sounds like there is a lot more in your arm that may not be getting tapped into.

[FeRnzFrEsH]

yes you are definitely right on that. Before I started pitching off a d1 mound i was throwing off a very bad hill and was about 75 feet apart from the rubber to catcher. I was still throwing 89 90 mph.

I come throw on the d1 mound and it feels like its 10 feet away and im throwing 90 91 easy. I know theres more velocity in it. Ill try to get a video.

[FeRnzFrEsH]

Well in that case that's excellent for him.

Not trying to discredit him or anything I just read it off some site saying he was at 90mph.

But anyways, I am at 90 mph but I can long toss from one football post to the other. What am I doing wrong in my delivery thats holding back that 4-5 mph on my fastball. I was clocked 2 days ago at 89 90 91.

[FeRnzFrEsH]

actually read up on him in his minor league game

Tops out at 90 mph. Do some research and you will stumble upon it.

With the crow hop you can easily gain 8-10 mph due to the momentum builded up.

When you are on a mound your at a complete dead stop so basically his momentum is already started before a leg lift if he were on a mound. But if he was in the stretch and started out his momentum would have to be explosive during the rotation of his hips

Source: Research

And I throw 89 90mph

[jaegersports]

China's actually still in College (CSUN). He topped out at 94 or 95 mph last year at College of the Canyons JC in the fall. 97mph is his best reading to date. So, he actually only was able to throw 2mph harder with a crow hop.

[redraiders07]

Because that's how you long toss, you don't use just your arm you use your whole body when you pitch, so why not use your whole body when you long toss? Like I said before, he's not throwing from a mound so the leverage has to come from somewhere. Also, any pitcher will tell you once you go beyond 60 or 70ft you should start crow hoping or steping into the throw.

[lifesrchpageant]

doesn't count with a crow hop and on flat ground.

[redraiders07]

Well with him being on flat ground he's supposed to crow hop, so he's not putting all that stress on his arm. He doesn't have the leverage you would have from a mound so it has to come from somewhere. Crow hop or not 97 is gas... I know for a fact that pretty much no one who's commented on this video can put up those numbers...

[lifesrchpageant]

not denying it's gas. is he a pitcher? if so, why the crow hops?

[BASE5555555]

is he a pitcher? being able to get a little momentum going behind a throw adds speed obviously, id like to see it off the mound if hes a pitcher.

[redraiders07]

That is absolute gas...

[golfr7k1]

the 96 mph pitch looked like a cutter! anyways this program must do something right!

[jPOPfreek]

ooo ooo ooo wow, i was mildly entertained by whoever was making those noises but more importantly this guy was really bringing it!

[futureKazmir]

also he was picked 891 in the draft by Clevland

[garrsal23]

WOW...and why isnt he in the bigs?

[dude58677]

He was drafted by teh Cleveland Indians.
