Overview
- Lin Chin-Tse, pitching for Chinese Taipei’s Tung-Yuan Little League team, was clocked at 82 mph on consecutive pitches in a 3-0 win over Mexico.
- At the 46-foot Little League distance, those readings roughly equate to a 107 mph fastball in Major League Baseball terms.
- A video clip shared by Jomboy Media drove widespread social media attention, making Lin’s outing one of the most talked-about moments of the series.
- Little League issued a public plea urging fans to refrain from placing bets on youth players in response to the viral coverage.
- Claims that Lin recorded nine strikeouts and that MLB teams have contacted his family remain unverified in the absence of independent confirmation.
