Α baseball player throws the ball....

In summary, the average speed of a baseball thrown by a professional player is around 90 miles per hour, with some pitchers able to reach speeds of 100 miles per hour. Several factors can affect a player's throwing speed, including arm strength, mechanics, pitch type, and environmental conditions. While some players may be able to throw accurately from any position, most excel in a specific position. Baseball players often train with weight training, resistance band exercises, and plyometric drills to improve their throwing abilities, as well as working with coaches to fine-tune their technique. However, overuse injuries to the arm are common among players, especially pitchers, due to the significant stress placed on the arm during throwing.
