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.
Enabled, the Chapman Filter shows that Cubs reliever Bruce Rondon threw a 101.7 mph four-seamer on July 18, a pitch faster than any thrown by anyone not named Aroldis Chapman in 2015. Chapman, who threw a dozen pitches over 100 mph in the All-Star Game, became the fastest pitcher in Major League history to 500 strikeouts earlier this season. His career 15.47 rate of strikeouts per nine innings is the highest of anyone with at least seven career innings pitched.
