📺🥎 ON THIS DAY — AUGUST 22, 2000

DARREN ZACK TAKES FASTPITCH TO NATIONAL TELEVISION! 🇨🇦

On this day 26 years ago, one of the greatest pitchers the game has ever seen helped put men’s fastpitch in front of a massive North American television audience.

Canadian legend Darren Zack appeared live on NBC’s Today Show in New York City as part of a feature surrounding Jeremy Spear’s iconic fastpitch documentary, Fast Pitch.

The documentary offered a fascinating look inside the world of men’s fastpitch, with Zack emerging as one of its unforgettable figures. His appearance on Today brought that world to an even bigger stage.

Outside Studio 1A, Zack showed viewers firsthand just how overpowering a world-class fastpitch pitcher could be — even striking out Today Show personalities Al Roker and Sara James during the segment.

For a sport that has often fought for mainstream attention, this was a pretty special moment.

For a few minutes on August 22, 2000, the fastpitch world had the national stage.

26 years later, it remains a pretty damn cool piece of fastpitch history.
