Officially it's 101 by Nolan Ryan. Joel Zumaya's hasn't officially been recognized yet. Here's an interesting read regarding recording fastballs:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/joel_zumaya...

If you're willing to include underhand pitchers, there was a guy on the yahoo homepage the other day who pitched a 104 mph ball. This was way back in the first half of the last century and I don't remember his name (I'm not a sports nut). He pitched in some sort of exhibition game against all the major hard ball hitters of the day and struck them all out.
Nolan Ryan, 1987, vs. Houston Astros. 106 MPH. It was recorded by the way.
