Freestyle. The freestyle stroke involves the use of muscles in your hands -- the thenars -- and arms -- the biceps and triceps -- to help you glide through the water smoothly. In one motion, your entire body is engaged in the forward action of the freestyle move.
The likelihood of a pitcher completing nine innings if he throws an average of 14 pitches or less per inning is reinforced by the totals of the 89 games in which pitchers did actually complete nine innings of work.
Four pitchers threw 27 pitches 100+ mph in these 23 games during the 2006 postseason. Some of these are likely duplicates of the 2006 radar readings section. Of the 27 pitches, 12 were 101+, 6 were 102+, 3 were 103+, and one was 104+ mph.
