In 1917, a Bridgeport, Connecticut munitions laboratory recorded Johnson's fastball at 134 feet per second,which is equal to 91 miles per hour (146 km/h), a velocity that may have been unmatched in his day, with the possible exception of Smoky Joe Wood.

Bob Feller debuts 20 years later. Had the arm come that far in that time? I don't think people generally view Feller as throwing in the high 80s.
