      Even when they do make contact, you can't really use physics to your advantage. You can convert the momentum from a 95 mph fastball into exit velocity. When its a 61 mph sinker, you have to create your own momentum.

    • @almostfm
      @almostfm Před 3 lety +8

      Because it's a really tough pitch to throw with any kind of consistency. And if you're having a day when the ball wants to spin out of your hand, your routine becomes "Throw a pitch, and go back up third. Throw a pitch, and back up third".

    • @fivebooks8498
      @fivebooks8498 Před 3 lety +1

      I believe knuckle ball pitchers lead in strike outs and homeruns given up. Basically if it breaks its unhittable. If it doesn't it's generally smashed into the upper deck. Ive seen knucke balls with no rotation at all come in straight as an arrow and then some dance everywhere. You never know what it's gonna do.

Without missing a beat the announcer continues, "And Mike just proposed to his high school sweetheart. They live in New Jersey in the off season." Trout's another player like Freeman. They have fun playing the game
      and seem like they'd be fun to hang with.

    Camargo wasn't even trying, he was like 'I better hit a weak grounder to first or else I'll hurt someone's feelings'.

    I remember telling my dad that the highlight of this game was Rizzo striking out Freeman, and that sums up the game right there.
