Jose Trevino throws slowest pitch of MLB season — here’s what it was clocked at

In the middle of a laugher between the Reds and Marlins, Cincinnati had a few jokes up its sleeve as the club looked to limp out of Tuesday’s game without wasting their pitchers.

Reds backup catcher Jose Trevino, the former Yankee, came in to put an end to an eventual 12-2 Marlins win and threw the slowest pitch in MLB this season with his 31.1-mph pitch in the ninth inning to catcher Agustin Ramirez, according to Baseball Savant.

Trevino hilariously was credited with employing three pitch types: a fastball that topped out in the low 60s, an eephus that bottomed out at 31.1 but also hovered in the low 40s and a knuckleball that sat consistently in the 50s.

He threw 35 pitches in his outing, allowing a run on four hits while not issuing any walks.

The Reds backstop also pitched against the Red Sox earlier this year, striking out promising 22-year-old infielder Marcelo Mayer.

Trevino, who spent three seasons with the Yankees from 2022-24, also pitched twice for the Bombers, going 2 ⅓ cumulative innings while allowing just one run on four hits.

The 32-year-old became a Platinum Glove winner and All-Star during his time in The Bronx, but has since found himself playing behind Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson.

When he faced the Yankees in June, he emotionally told The Post’s Greg Joyce that being a Yankee was a dream come true.

“It’s cool, man,” Trevino said while getting choked up as he spoke at his locker inside the home clubhouse at Great American Ballpark. “It’s a lot of hard work. 

“I will always say that those guys — the organization itself, as a kid, it’s who I wanted to play for. It was a great time in my life, for sure.”

Trevino is hitting .283 with four home runs and 14 RBIs in 166 at-bats this season for the Reds — and a 3.86 ERA following Tuesday’s stint.
