Haeagar could probably get away with throwing a few more fastballs in certain counts. It isn't as noticeable to detect as I previously thought.

 

Not that I'd expect Haegar to exceed a ratio of 10/1 knuckle to fastball/etc., but atleast he can somewhat deceive hitters if the pitch is called.

I was thinking about that today. So how can he hide the fact that he's throwing the fastball? When Chisoxfn said he can throw in the mid-80s plus, I thought there would be no chance he could throw that without totally giving it away.

Nothing. To be honest i think the ump is actually being too generous to haeger. Three pitches that were called a strike on the low outside corner should have been balls... yet he called them strikes.

He's missed several which were strikes as well.

 

It's not where the pitch ends up, but where it crosses the plate. That's why this pitch is the most difficult to call. It could conceivably cross the strikezone and still end up in the dirt, or outside the strikezone.
