How do you turn 102.1 into 427?! Just ask Griffin Conine

Griffin Conine made a late-game statement at Petco Park, turning 102.1 mph velocity into a game-tying homer for Miami. With the Marlins trailing 6-5 in the ninth and one out, Conine pinch-hit for Graham Pauley and watched a first-pitch inside slider taken for a ball. On the next offering, he drove Mason Miller’s 102.1 mph four-seamer for a Statcast-projected 427-foot shot, aided by a 110.8 mph exit velocity. Tracking data also pegged it as the fastest ball a Marlin took deep under tracking since 2008 and among the top 10 for any Major Leaguer in that span.
