I never gave up a run. the other pitchers could throw close to 80. Big change.

what's so sweet about this is he knows there's really no pressure bc he's not a pitcher so he can just do whatever he wants without feeling obligated. from a batters perspective this has to be horrifying bc people "DO" expect results facing someone who isn't a pitcher. it's a win win for Astudillo.

GENIUS! Not only does he throw off the hitter's timing, the bat is not meeting that slow of a pitch with nearly as much counter force as it does with upper speed pitches. One of the very first things I learned in Little League was to basically not even swing hard at a pitch at all but just stick my bat out and let the ball essentially bounce off of the bat. Doing that I was able to pop a hit just over the heads of the infielders pretty much at will. I was always a fast runner so I would steal second and third base then the next hit brought me home.

I'm pretty sure he told his team to be ready, gave them all heads up of his plan. This video the crowd laughed when they saw the first pitch. Did the pitcher laugh? How about his team? What the crowd and the opposing team should of done right after the first pitch, was look at the entire team demeanor. If they looked "to ready" for action, and I was the batter or coming up to bat, I would of known immediately what to look for. But none of the batters or the crowd expected it. I'm impressed!

yup ... that is also why the catcher is in charge ON the field .. they are the ONLY person with a proper complete view of the entire field from the batters perspective ... and good catchers will have memorized every opposing players preferred or common hit pitches and avoid those . slow balls always play heck with hit timing as players even pitching machines are used to 55 to 60Mph pitches .. and a batter who has a hard time adjusting their routine for slower pitches is one who hasnt understood that a pitch can be any speed across the plate ... it just has to make it into the strike zone ... his fast ball here is more of a change up as that is normally a slow pitch hat appears fast at first which destroys a batters timing even better ... kind of like lifting an empty box and making it look like it weighs 50lbs ..

He doesn't showboat, he doesn't trash talk, he hustles--and yet he is himself. He respects the game, and it is obvious he loves to play. He puts his unique stamp on everything he does and the fans love him. Who could ask for a better professional baseball player? A lot of the other players could learn something by following his example. Sadly, few will.

What would be really cool is if a pitcher could have a wide speed range on all pitches. For example, throw a 90mph fastball and then a 70 mph fastball. Or a change up in the 80s and then drop to a change up in the 50s. You'd always have the hitters guessing. I've never seen an actual pitcher really be able to do that.
