His Fastball is 88-89mph. Nothing special. Wife says we are using the term fastball rather loosely tonight.

Schil is going to have to gut it out because the movement on his ball looks flat so far.

Its not so much the speed because he (and others) throw in that range. But with no movement....yikes.

You should hear this crowd! On that last strike out I could hear then in my neighborhood. Granted, I only live about a 10 - 15 minute walk from Fenway but you don't always hear the crowd.
Glad Tito put in Ellsbury!
To: big'ol_freeper
Well, if you are placing it on the corners with preceision you can get away with a straight ball. You can even get the hitters to chase one a few inches on the outside. Maybe even stretch the zone a bit. If you go up and over the plate say good night.
