One of the factors that is said to have greatly improved the pitcher’s performance is the pitching that makes full use of a variety of changing balls. Looking at the percentage of types of pitches, the type of pitch Shohei Otani threw the most this season was the slider, which accounted for 39%, and the straight, which had the highest percentage last season, remained at 28%. In addition, he added new breaking balls even during the season, such as incorporating two seams from the middle of this season, and showed a pitch that did not narrow down the target of the batter. Of the various breaking balls, the slider is thrown the most, but one of the two types of sliders thrown is called the gyro slider, which has a fast speed and a unique way of bending, and is also called a magic ball. is. In addition, this gyro slider has become a type of pitch that confuses hitters with its combination of pitching with two seams. Therefore, this time, we will introduce the greatness of Ohtani’s new magic ball gyro slider, which Max Stassy talks about. #Shohei Ohtani #Stussy #overseas reaction
