It was more than just good luck for the newest member of the Oakland A's, though — this move was a year in the making. CNN reports that Nathan originally threw a 96 mph ball at a Nashville Sounds pitching booth. He told MLB.com that the pitch surprised him, because he hadn't seriously played baseball "for a few years before that."
He competed up until his senior year of high school, but "didn't really have a good arm then."
After throwing the impressive pitch in Nashville, Nathan began training. His plans were later derailed when he was in a car accident that left his non-throwing arm in a cast. He continued to train while recovering from surgery on the arm, and he gained attention on Twitter for pitching impressively fast balls while still in a cast.

Nathan began talking with the Oakland A's in February, according to MLB.com, and got the call "a few days" after throwing the viral pitch at the Rockies game.
"This story is not over. It is not the beginning," he tweeted the night he signed the contract. "I am writing the next chapters and excited for this journey! Time to focus even more, work even harder, and it all starts with your mindset"
