20:13 is a good point in the video. Ben Joyce said he was never taught how to pitch hard or never had any cues on his mechanics and is still able to throw 104... For everyone who knocks athletes of the past... I think this is a good testament that natural ability can outperform the most advanced training & coaching out there sometimes or at least be just as good
That's a tough one. I can tell you from experience. I played in the Tom House Pitching Mechanics era (keep your weigth on the balls of your foot rather than using your glutes like today's guys do/are taught) and there is no question in general the information these boys have today is soooo much more conductive to consistent power output than what was taught in the 90s. Today's kids are really blessed with having superior mechanical education. For sure, there was Nolan Ryan, there was Tom Seaver, there was Roger Clemens........but those guys were truly exceptional (and they would still be exceptional today). Is just that they are not as rare as they use to be.
@@Strotophonic Yeah, fair point. My point is not that more guys are reaching higher levels of performance, its that some guys have so much talent that even modern training can't find ways to surpass & you'd have to be crazy to believe that there haven't been certain athletes of the past who had just as much talent as the top guys of today.
And also, I feel you. I graduated high school in 2012 as a lefty with good movement on my pitches but only throwing about 80MPH & got recruited to pitch D3 baseball for a team that was nationally ranked in the top 10 in the country for D3 schools. I blew my arm out in the fall before I could start the season, then left the college, quit baseball, & didn't play again until 2016 in Juco, which took an immense amount of rehab to condition my injured arm & I overdid it to the point of no return. I wonder how much better I could have been had I not injured my arm & had access to the information of today. We are really in the age of learned velocity.
@@spcooper94 Absolutely. Learned Velocity is the greates term I've heard. Young folks today, to their credit, have gotten rid of this thing we had in our head back then y'know? (Velocity was natural, you either have it or you don't..........and a lot of people proud themselves on that)...........Well there ain't you shame in having "Learned Velo". Great discussion.
Fantastic interview
Thanks Tyler!
ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR AND REPENT JESUS LOVES YOU HE DIED FOR YOU SO YOU COULD BE FORGIVEN ASK GOD FOR FORGIVENESS AND REPENT!🙏🙏 AMEN….
Ivan Melendez’s nickname is better. Hispanic Titanic
Yeah, but I didn't make that one up. I did with the Volunteer Fireman.
The host gay? Got that vibe. Couldn’t finish watching…cringe. 😬
Holy douchebag Batman!
I wouldn't talk with a last name as gay as yours.
I find it absolutely crazy that he was topping 67 in his freshman year of high school! Not something expected from a man who throws 104 mph 😂
Totally--so awesome! Never count a kid out.
Right? Also find it crazy he didn’t hit 90 until his senior year
Probably didn't even hit puberty yet. Some freshman are still little boys.
Great interview, really like how grounded he appears to be and how hard he works. Hope he stays healthy and makes it to the show, can't wait to see it!
Totally agree. Good, grounded dude...and love watching him pitch.
Joyce hitting the umpire in the face mask with his first pitch fastball reminded me of Kerry Wood's first pitch of his 20k game
I thought the same thing.
@@PitchingNinjaVideos One of the greatest games ever pitched. The only thing that really bothers me is that game didn't have a radar gun, and all estimates of how fast Wood was throwing that day are just speculation. I'd love to see a video where someone was able to perhaps compare and match frame rates of Woods pitches against one of today's modern pitchers who's on the gun 🔥⚾️
“Velocitity” indeed, the way he throws in needs a new word! (Around 3:35)
Wait, what?? That first pitch looks fake. :o
Tell that to the batter, catcher and the ump
Nolan Ryan stuff 🔥
Tennessee pumped out crochet, now they pumpin out Joyce 💯💯
I’m a Tennessee fan and what’s really crazy is that Crochet never threw 102 in college because he was a starter. I saw him start literally every friday as our ace and I never even knew that he could do that until he was out of college. He let his velocity loose once his role as a bullpen guy in the pros was clear to him. Joyce has the potential to break the MLB pitch speed record once he gets called up if he can keep his command
@@ngroll2910 i just wanna come to la
The golden arm
GO VOLS. Number 1 team in the country
Just watched two close games against Vandy and he didn’t pitch…Are the Vols that good that this guy only has 8 innings in 26 games? Or are they saving him kind of? Coming off injury?
He had Tommy John surgery but in his 22 games hes appeared in hes gone 26 innings so idk where that stat came from?
@@Bigwheel414 this was awhile ago man haha they definitely let him loose not long after this interview. That’s the amount of innings he had at the time.
I have the same delivery and power but i only throw 65mph...this is totally bull
Second!
Made his debut last night for the Angels. Dominant stuff!
imagine bro in the show 💀💀
Great interview! Thx!
Nice
Go Vols
Steve Dalkowski threw 110 mph maybe more.
Uncle Rico could throw a football over the mountains too. Maybe even farther
@@austinroberts6229 Yes, but your Uncle Rico was as fake as Dalkowski was real.
I know. There just isn't good evidence of him throwing that hard. It would be cool if he did though.
coming off of a tommy john already. thats a red flag for his future man
No it is not
