TOP PITCHING Performances from June! (feat. Tarik Skubal, Zack Wheeler, Jacob deGrom, and MORE!)
the lefty Ryan Yarro.
A lot of finesse from Yarborough and the Yankees know him well from his days with the Tampa Bay Rays
on the one two to Otani. Oh boy, filthy pitch on a change up and showing strikes out.
It’s kind of Yarborough in a nutshell right there. A sidearm change up down and away to a lefty.
Two starts. He’s pitched 12 innings has yet to allow a run.
Got him swinging. Nasty stuff from Adrien Hower to get out of the jam the first. Well, with his arm, it’s about just rhythm because the stuff is naturally nasty. He doesn’t have to put the extra effort into it. Wow. Speaking of nasty, he gets 17 in of horizontal break on that pitch on average. And I think he probably exceeded that right there for his first strike out of the day.
With that low arm angle, if he gets his fingers in the right place with some good hand discipline, he can really make that thing break.
Runners everywhere now with one out. Bald in two strikes. Got him swinging. Nasty depth on that slider. 91 mph slider. Kikuchi.
Here’s the one two. Got him on a slider. Nasty ones at the bottom of the zone. And that’s backto back strikeouts for Freeland. Pitch. Strike three called according to the radar. That one was 93 from Kyle as he gets his third. 02 pitch and Springs strikes out. Backto back hitters. Two down.
That was a nasty, nasty change up. Phenomenal arm speed. Soka right into the wind up. Here’s the pitch. Swing and a miss. He struck him out with a breaking ball running down and in. Michael Sarroa just mowing down Texas Rangers here. This breaking ball has been nasty tonight. That’s where he’s getting his strikeouts and swing and miss.
Trout has crushed the Mariners throughout his career. He has the most home runs of any hitter ever against the Seattle franchise.
Really ties him up. That is some nasty run on a fast ball up and in a pair of handcuffs to Mike Trout issued by Luis Castillo.
He’s thrown a first pitch strike to 12 of 13. Got him. Jelly legged him with that slider as he goes down looking.
That’s nasty.
Now one looking and one swinging and he knew this one was a strike from Chris Sale. That will do it. Second time Cameron has gone down looking in the game. Oh, called strike three. Nice presentation by Raj.
That’s just a nasty pitch to start with and watch Jake Rogers just present that perfectly
back here at Wrigley Field. And with Father’s Day coming up, Mr. Skins, Paul’s dad here. Ski told Haley Hunter, feels like he’s faced these Cubs about a million times. It’s his sixth career start, second this season against Chicago. Everything about what you’re seeing from skins, it’s history as he strikes out BCH for his third strikeout of the day for Kate Horton. Three in one with a 4.11 ERA as he takes the mound here this afternoon.
And a swing and a miss. Nasty slider right there. And Kate Horton able to get a one, two, three. Swing and a miss. And Horton carves up Andrew McCutchen.
Wilson Contreras is the hitter. the Cardinals and a strikeout. Nasty sinker tailing away from Wilson Contraras and it’s the first out at the plate for Kintana.
Be careful with the fast ball against Aronado. He will cheat to it. And he got him. Good call. Gave him the slider. Picks up his first strikeout. Gets another slider. Good call by William Contras. Well executed by Aribe. That’s the filthy pitch. There was a 3-2 cutter instead. There’s the first K for Kramer.
Now that was nasty. That was like a zoom ball. That ball started in the middle of the plate and just took off under the hands of Meister. And his cutter has been much better as of late.
3-2. Wang and a miss. went back to the curve ball and fought gets his first strike out. Boy, this is just a good curve ball right here. Starts at the middle part of the strike zone,
ends up at the lower. Woo, that was nasty.
Was indeed to strike out Solano with that sweeper and two down.
Watch the break on this. I mean, this thing starts over the middle of the plate and just about goes off Solano’s back knee. Swing and a miss. He put him away. Back to the sweeper. It’s really been deadly. Struck him out. One man left at second. Two seamer running. Charlie Morton with a couple of great pitches in that inning. He cards out the heart of the Rays order
right here. Keanero. Oh, the head’s going one way, the bat the other. Nasty curveball
and he buries him with a heater.
You know, the other great part about Charlie being just he’s such a veteran and he’s such a crafty smart guy. Three out of four strikeouts on the heater and he just blows it right by Kabiiera.
One out faces Matt Wong
and the Miz with a strike out. It’s a big curveball by Mizarowski and he picks up his first strike out of the game. Will Castro Oh, he tied him up. Scissor piece. Jacob Mizarowski with a nasty slider. You’re going to see that one all over. Lugos allowed just one hit today and that was to the first batter he faced. Struck him out. Nasty slider
and a swing and a miss on the offspe breaking ball. And there is strike out number seven for Spencer Schwen. You can argue he’s a top five, top 10 pitcher in the game right now. Nasty splitter. Jared Young is down on strikes. It’s about as good as you can throw it right here. It’s going to start at the bottom of the zone and then it’s just going to disappear below it.
You’re going to get touched once in a while. I’ve never seen a guy that never got touched. Oh, that one was even meaner. You ain’t going to touch that one though. Once you get ahead, you throw him the nasty change up. There ain’t a long enough bat on the planet to get to that ball.
One, two, swing and a miss. Strike three. Yikes. Three and two. Two on. Two out. Scooble on the way home. Called strike three. A parachute sinks curts. Mark K is furious. The fast ball is plus plus. The slider is plus+. Swinging the miss. That devastating slider. First man face struck out by Chase Burns.
You go out there and you get a rookie, you’re you’re veteran player and he throws three pitches and then you go, “Oh my goodness, this is real. Got him. Strike out number one for Mizarowski. I would say both offenses had better lay off that high fast ball today. 101 above the strike zone. There’s no chance to be able to barrel that up. Strike out. Well, Nick Martinez is having a heck of a day today. He is not a man with a poker face. He’s loving it. Two tipped into the glove and strike three. Six strike out for Schmid. Another one, two from Otani. Swing and a miss. Strike three. There’s that slider right there. It stays on the outer part of the plate. Talked about it, you know, with with with Show today. He’s doing a little bit of everything. Sunny Gray was drafted out of high school by the Cubs in 2008, but he decided to go to Vanderbilt. He was really the first guy to come out of that program. Maybe David Price beat him, but after that, once that Vanderbilt program started cooking, two and two, swinging a miss, strike three. Sunny Gray with a throwback performance tonight. 11 strikeouts, eight shutout innings, and under 80 pitches to boot. What a performance on this Friday night in Cleveland. Was after his 13th strike out. And there is a strike three to France on the inner half. He is still getting stronger. When you think it’s going to be change up away, here it comes. 100
Garrett Crochet, Yusei Kikuchi, and Spencer Schwellenbach were throwing serious heat this month!
