The best I ever saw was Vladimir Guerrero throwing a runner out at the plate while he was with the Expos against the Mets at Shea. I couldn't find a youtube clip of it unfortunately.

Here is the second best throw I'v ever seen: Ichiro mega LASER BEAM throw - YouTube

I'm a huge Ichiro fan and as impressive as that is, Ankiel did that twice from the track, including once on the turn-around without looking where he was throwing. Dude's absolutely nuts.

Ankiel can throw more strikes from the warning track than he can from the mound...

The Ichiro throw is my favorite. I'm an A's fan and remember seeing this live on TV. Broke my heart and dropped my jaw all at the same time.

First guy was out by a mile, even the Rockies PBP guy agreed. Second guy was bang-bang, but still looked out in my estimation.

I'm showing my age here, but I thought this one was pretty good too. Dave Parker in the '79 All Star Game

agreed, this thread just gave me 15 minutes of bliss.

side-note: I miss those late 70's pinstriped/cylindrical shaped Pirates' baseball caps!
