yes that speed was measured as the avg between home plate distance and a metal plate that was like 10 feet behind home plate. The do a velocity analysis and figure out that it was going in the mid 90's,the real surprise is they estimate Ryan's 100.9 ten feet in front of home plate was going 108.1 right after it was released!
