fathom Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Nova is making a lot of bad pitches the last few innings, we just can't get an extra base hit. Quentin typically destroys that 2-0 pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 QUOTE (Knackattack @ Apr 26, 2011 -> 07:26 PM) Oh I'm sure Nova could just pump 3 fastballs down the plate to just about everyone here and K the s*** out of them lmao. I actually got a chance to bat against Mat Latos my senior year, I went to the same highschool as him (Coconut Creek) and he was a part time coach for us. Not exactly the proudest moment of my career. The fastest pitch I've seen live at bat was mid eighties, and it was backed up with a change that almost screwed me into the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how these guys hit them -__-. Â Latos threw me 93, 96, 98 right down the middle and I foul tipped one of them. Yay.

fathom Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Dunn chased ball 4 and 5 there. He's diving over the plate a lot more than I saw him do in the past, as he doesn't seem to be getting around the ball very well (same as Beckham and Morel).
