Rod Blagojevich said Thursday that they have reached agreement on just two of 24 counts against him, and haven t even begun discussing 11 of the counts.

And now, thanks to a new study, we know the reason behind that delightfully destructive pitcher instinct鈥攁nd it all started with Homo erectus almost two million years ago. Neil Roach, lead author of the study and professor at George Washington University, is no stranger to the study of throwing mechanics.

Thanks to their high shoulders, chimps are stuck with throwing 20mph underhand balls at best. So this time, wanting to see why that evolutionary divide might have occurred, Roach
stanley thermobecher and his colleagues used motion capture technology and 20 human members of Harvard baseball team to construct 3D representations of every leg, hip, torso, elbow, and shoulder movement behind a fastball. Ultimately, Roach discovered that the trick behind our speedy toss is the elastic energy produced in our shoulder rotation鈥攖he fastest motion a human body is capable of. As Discover Magazine notes: Professional pitchers can reach a rotation of 9,000 degrees per second. At that speed, if the arm could rotate a full 360 degrees it would complete 25 rotations in one second. A fact that may be
