It took a long time for me to understand what "look fastball, adjust to the curve" means--it's like having three distinct, different physical responses all equally ready, right up to when you ID the pitch, and then choosing and doing one of them in a split second. Easy to say, really hard to do. <br />Holden Baroquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941566402992955387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-77521601171843593302013-05-13T15:43:06.665-04:002013-05-13T15:43:06.665-04:00Also, I changed up my seating arrangement after Gi...Also, I changed up my seating arrangement after Gio got the hook.
