Yeah I saw he walked 8. I'm thinking fatigue. Not in the sense that his legs are done (which is where you gain a large portion of your velocity) just his arm is getting worn. I read an interesting article today about the art of pitching and what it does to the tissues and fibers in your arm.
i just don't think he had command of the curveball. his fastball looked good however. he didn't look comfortable on the mound. he seemed jittery and out of his comfort zone. his body language didn't show a confident pitcher.
Lol, 4 runs in the 9th so far.
heyyyyyyyyyyyyy alright!!
lol kansas city better not blow this one. they did blow a 7 run lead to detroit once late in the game
They say that every pitch thrown with a velocity of at least 80 mph, puts enough stress on a certain tendon (I think it was a tendon they mentioned) in the arm that it could snap or tear. The arm is not made to throw the ball, in fact your arm creates resistance in the sense that it is trying to keep your shoulder from jumping out of the socket.
It was a GS by Cintron.
ok, that's nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
game over and we lose 10-4
It made a lot of sense. Softball pitchers can throw on consecutive days with no problem. You try doing the same.
i can't throw 80 mph so i don't worry about it
I think I can still hit 70+
Maybe even 75+
i'd probably struggle to get into the 50's. i've gotten so out of shape since high school //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
