Best Single Pitch in Baseball?

[Wilson A2000]

Who has had or has the best single pitch ever? Bob Feller's fastball? Rivera's cutter? Hoffman's change?

A case could be made for Randy Johnson's slider if you're only counting hitters from one side of the plate.

Kerry Wood's breaking pitches before his arm fell off. I've never seen someone turn a baseball into a whiffle ball like he could.

[OleMissCub]

Ryan's heat or Johnson's (Randy) slider.

[NCCubFan]

Sidd Finch's 168-MPH fastball.

Rivera's cutter definitely has to be up there.

Hitters seem to really like whatever it is that Randy Wells is throwing these days.

I thought the best pitch in baseball was...strike 1. No matter who's pitching.

Not if the catcher drops it

Randy Johnson's "Mr Snappy"

A case could be made for Randy Johnson's slider if you're only counting hitters from one side of the plate.

 

Especially when he faced the Cubs

Randy Johnson would be the starting pitcher on the all-time Cubs killer team.

I agree. Although Stephen Strasburg's curveball is pretty nasty.

Anybody that can throw 98 mph fast-ball followed by a 68 mph change up

I hate that when that ball is flying in at 98 then comes to a crawl and I swing three times in a row, bugs does that all the time to me

Wasn't that Jason Bere? Or did he have a different special pitch?

Ah, you may be right. So tough to keep all of those mediocre late 90's pitchers straight
