A 100 MPH fastball flies farther when it is hit.

Exactly. Greene has got to learn to take a touch off his fastball and make his normal fastball like 95. Only crank it up to 99 a few times a game. And get better at curveballs, changeups, sliders or whatever. They're knocking the cover off his fastballs !
