TPC Video Break: What's a 4 Shake Ball?
One of the best things about the internet is how it helps spread ideas across cultural borders. How long do you think it will take before we see the 4 shake ball in the majors?
I'm not sure about that. They were all about the same speed (90 kmh), so I assuming they were all '4 shake balls'. If one of them was a fastball or a curve, 90 kmh would seem really slow for a full grown man (then again, that's probably about as fast as I throw).
Were all of those pitches the 4 shake ball?
