The Pirates reliever threw the fastest pitch of the 2024 season, and then caught Machado looking with his very next offering.
In the top of the eighth inning with the score tied 6–6, Machado batted with two outs and two runners on. One swing could tilt the game back in theChapman battled ahead in the count 0–2 before Machado fouled off two pitches and took a ball low that was measured at 105.1 mph. On the sixth pitch of the at-bat, Chapman reached back again for an extra bit of heat and found it with a 104.7-mph heater painted on the inside corner for strike three.
All Machado could do was laugh as he stood in place in the batter's box and looked toward the mound. Chapman returned a smile, knowing he got the best of the six-time All-Star., that 104.7-mph fastball is the fastest strikeout pitch since pitches were first tracked in 2008. A 105.1-mph heater he threw earlier in the count was the fastest pitch so far for any MLB pitcher in 2024, and the first time Chapman topped 105 mph on the radar gun since 2016.
