My advice would be to throw it very slow. The slower, like you're trying to gain velocity. I think once you get to like 65, 70 miles an hour, that's when guys are going to start unleashing on it because it flattens out a little bit. It's less loop. So my advice would be to hone in a really slow pitch over the zone. And I think that you will do really well.

Yeah. I think that that's when one position guys get in there and you can kind of see they get a little amped up and they start, you know, letting it rip because they want to, you know, there's VLO guns everywhere in the stadium and they want to start lighting it up or just like. Oh, yeah, I can throw 74. It's like, yeah, you're going to throw 74, and it's going to get 110 out, and it's way gone.

So if you want to get outs, the guys that I think are really good are guys that throw it over the zone. And with baseballs too, like the slower you – this is going to sound like nerdy, but – The slower you throw it, there's more times for seam effects to happen, and your ball will cut and sink, and it'll be a little awkward to hit.

So I think if you can dial in a 45-mile-an-hour fastball and throw it on the two seams, don't throw it on the four seams, throw it on the two seams, it'll cut for you and do some cool sinking stuff.
