Changing Speeds

Earlier this spring, Joel Zumaya talked about slowing down. If this is how he's going to do it, I'm fine with the contrast:

Zumaya, who gave up only a harmless single in two innings, struck out Mark Bellhorn on a 102 mph heater to start the seventh, then followed by fanning David Ross on a tantalizing 85 mph pitch.

A 17 MPH difference between his fastball and changeup! That will fool a few hitters.

Fool them? It might kill them!

And for a spare-time changeup, Zoomer has taken up "Guitar Hero Acoustic: The Leo Kottke Edition."
