Luis Severino threw the nastiest pitch that broke like a Frisbee
Luis Severino threw the nastiest pitch that broke like a Frisbee
Luis Severino is now an Athletics pitcher after getting the biggest contract in franchise history.
But, hey, maybe the pitcher is worth all that money, right? He pitched well for the New York Mets last year, and on Opening Day 2025, he threw six innings and gave up no runs and just three hits with four walks.
But let's talk about this filthy pitch, a sweeper that starts outside to Seattle Mariners slugger Rowdy Tellez and comes darting back over the outside corner for strike three. It apparently had over two feet of break! It's no wonder Severino was so fired up at this one.
Check it out and see if you agree that this was downright unhittable:

Carlos Mendoza Sends Juan Soto, Pete Alonso Message After Nationals-Mets
Carlos Mendoza Sends Juan Soto, Pete Alonso Message After Nationals-Mets originally appeared on Athlon Sports. On Tuesday night at Citi Field, the New York Mets clawed their way to a thrilling 5-4 walk-off victory over the Washington Nationals in the opening game of a three-game set. With the win, the Mets improved to 43-24 on the season and an astounding 25-7 at home — the best home start in franchise history. Advertisement The night belonged to the Mets' twin pillars of offensive power — Juan Soto and Pete Alonso — whose eighth-inning heroics tied the game and reignited the home crowd. It was Soto who first chipped away at the Nationals' lead, launching a towering solo homer in the third inning — his 12th of the season — off his former teammate MacKenzie Gore. The shot traveled 373 feet the opposite way, extending Soto's scorching hot streak at the plate.

After Starling Marte worked a masterful two-out walk, Soto ripped a sinking line drive to right field that turned into an RBI double after a misplay by Robert Hassell III. Pete Alonso then wasted no time, hammering an 0-1 splitter from Kyle Finnegan off the left-field wall to bring Soto home and knot the game at four apiece. Advertisement 'I kept thinking, let's get the big boys up there. Let's give Soto a chance. Let's give Pete a chance,' said Mets manager Carlos Mendoza postgame. 'With the way they've been swinging it, you feel good.' Alonso's RBI single marked his 62nd run batted in of the season — the highest in Major League Baseball — and underscored the slugger's ability to deliver in pivotal moments. Though he was thrown out stretching for second to end the inning, the damage was done. The Mets sealed the win in extras, plating the automatic runner in the tenth to walk off the Nationals for their sixth walk-off victory of the season — and fourth straight win in Flushing.
