Did you know that Aroldis Chapman has thrown a pitch that was clocked at 105 miles per hour? Did you know that Aroldis Chapman would like you to remember this fact while you are driving? Well, if you didn't, Chapman is prepared to remedy the situation on both points by ordering new vanity plates, one of which is to read, "105MPH."
After an inordinate amount of research, I've found that in Kentucky, the state where I'd imagine his plates are currently registered (he pitched in AAA-Louisville), "105MPH" is either taken or not allowed. Same story in Ohio. Bummer, Mr. Chapman. After the jump, I have another vanity plate idea that you'll surely be interested in.

It appears the number zero is not allowed, throwing the wrench in the plans. Maybe he can change his velocity to 1O5 MPH?

nope.
