89 mph for Garcia on that fastball. His changeup was 79 mph.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 22, 2006 -> 06:05 PM)
The last pitch wasn't a hanger. It was a high curveball. He was trying to throw a high curve. Not one in the dirt.

 

Curveballs that dont break are called hangers.

 

People do not throw high breaking pitches, high breaking pitches flatten out and become souveniers for the kiddies when they cross the outfield fence. AJ was setting up low and away.

Dye has been misjudging a lot of liners this season.

Glad JD caught that. It was zeroing in on his kneecap

JD having an interesting night in RF :lol:

It's so refreshing to hear DJ be critical of Garcia's approach.

There's a difference between a hangar and a high curve ball, that was a hangar though. The Twins are hitting absolute ropes right now.

Their offense is good enough too, thankfully right now their bullpen pretty much sucks and I don't see them being able to keep KC(yes even the great kc) down on offense.

Letting Millwood and Howry go is going to hurt em IMO

Garcia is getting hit hard, we've gotten some luck in where they were hit to. He isnt there yet, where he needs to be.

I didn't know that Matt Miller is lost for the season. He was a solid reliever for them.

Garcia is getting hit hard but the Twins are getting lucky that they are finding holes.

Freddy starting to get hit HARD now.

The Indians have 1 hit through 4 against Joe Mays. Yikes.

Its very distrubing, eventually, they are all going to start falling. And it could get ugly. Come on Freddy, get it together!

HOPEFULLY he can make it through 5

LOTS of Garcias pitches are very flat right now...just laying them in there...they aren't gonna be hit at people all night, he better get it going.

Well, Ozzie's going to give him at least 5 innings. I just hope Ozzie is proactive in his approach with the bullpen tonight. Our pen should be fresh.

His only pitch that's close to being above average right now is his changeup, and he can only throw that vs lefties.

Freddy's curves are way off tonight. Come on, I know hes got it in him to get his stuff together. Hes dominating when hes on.

ANOTHER hanger!

70 pitches for Garcia already.

With the tilt on Garcia's offspeed pitch, it has to be a hanger to be a strike.
