Lip-readers deciphered Julio Rodriguez’s justified reaction to getting hit with a 103 MPH Jhoan Duran pitch

Jhoan Duran throws fast. Like, BLAZINGLY fast. Like, RECORD BREAKING fast.

So, yeah: You don’t want to get hit by one of his triple-digits fastballs. It’ll leave a mark, or much, much worse.

Luckily, it seems like young Seattle Mariners star Julio Rodriguez is OK after he got hit by a pitch thrown by Duran that was clocked at 103 MPH. And thanks to lip-reading from @PitchingNinja, we know what he appeared to say.
