I think that's because "fastball" isn't really used to mean a specific kind of pitch these days (like it was when I was a kid in the '80's, anyway). These days, most pitchers have more than one type of fastball and it's basically come to mean a non-offspeed pitch, especially since hardly anyone throws a straight fastball anymore.
