Nice job Foster. Hard to blame him there too much when he gave up some cheapies. 

You nailed it tho about his stuff maybe being down on a B2B night. He needs a breather

That was a great pitch.  The bullet slider is all about deception.  He thought he was swinging at a fastball. 

Is the bullet slider basically just a change up but with opposite spin? It looks like it's more about downward movement than the sweep of a slider.

Pretty much.  It's shorter and quicker and spins different from a traditional slider so the hitter doesn't recognize it as a slider. Some organizations are starting to teach it in the minors.
