Billy Koch

Billy Koch (born December 14, 1974 in Rockville Centre, New York) was once a feared reliever in Major League Baseball. He was one of the few pitchers who constantly threw 100 MPH, but he has lost velocity and struggled with command in recent years.

Billy Koch played college baseball for Clemson University from 1994-1996. He was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 1st round (4th pick) of the 1996 amateur draft and made his debut in 1999. Billy made an instant impression by regularly hitting 100 MPH on the radar gun. The pitch speed, posted on the SkyDome jumbotron after every pitch, consistently drew awes from the crowd.
