Los Angeles Angels rookie Ben Joyce threw a 105.5 mph fastball Tuesday night that was the fastest pitch in the Major Leagues this season.
It was also the fastest strikeout pitch in the pitch-tracking era, which started in 2008.
Joyce\'s fastball struck out Tommy Edman to end the Los Angeles Dodgers\' half of the ninth inning.
Aroldis Chapman threw a 105.8 mph fastball in September 2010 and a 105.7 mph pitch in July 2016. Only Chapman and Jordan Hicks had touched 105 mph in a Major League game during the pitch-tracking era before Joyce joined them.
