The way he does just makes it look super obnoxious. Expand Yeah, wet your long hair before you go to the mound and grab it between each pitch to get that grip. Every pitcher should start doing that, someone tell Giolito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King of Juco showed a similar mixture with suntan lotion and rosin and it does improve your spin rate. Its not as good as spidertack, but it works. Expand Cease does the same thing but he doesn't make it look like he's definitely got spider tack in his hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I love Harrison's defense today but I also loved Yolmer's gold glove defense....need some offense from Josh starting in the bottom of the 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Hendriks here is fine. There can't be a save situation for the Sox. The problem is, you would love to have a strikeout guy pitching in the 10th if it makes it that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie4Pres Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I'm just trying to understand why Lopez has not gone more than an inning all season. Was this not a guy that at one point was being considered as a starting pitcher??? He can't throw more than 15 pitches? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Given how league wide spin rates cratered and now are on the rise again, I think it's obvious pitchers found a spider tack equivalent that's more difficult for umps to check. You wouldn't see spin rate increases like this if all they were using is sweat and rosin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
