Top Pitching Performances | TEX@LAA: Darvish strikes out 11 over six scoreless - Video | texasrangers.com: Multimedia

consecutive strikeout pitches beginning at the 1:10 mark is halarious.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

That's terrific. He probably deserved it too. Umps these days.

All five of Darvish's pitches in one delivery:

I can't stop watching it. That 12-6 is just filthy.

Byron Buxton (Twins, 2nd Overall 2012) in Class A Cedar Rapids.

.404/.514/.614, 2 Dbl 2 Tpl 2 HR 7 SB 10 RBI 12 BB 13 Runs through the first 16 games.

That's called filling up the box score.

Dear god.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Wow

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Earning that 6 million.

I expected some swing and miss/struggle at the offset. Hopefully he continues that at AA soon.

Me too but talent plays.. AA will be a much stiffer test

 

[005]

Not sure who his comp is. Need to put out feelers on a LaRoche/Buxton deal.

 

[TBrown]

Haha

 

[005]

Also: I, for one, am ready for lucas giolito to pitch in the league already.

 

[TBrown]

So he can be the first pitcher to have his arm fly off on national tv??

 

[005]

He'll at least pitch in the minors this year, I think. Maybe. Idk. Just wanna see him.

I dunno if anybody remembers Kevin Keyes at Texas, but...

12 walks is impressive.

High A next probably though

 

[TBrown]

Yes but still not particularly challenging

True. Sincere candidate for #1 prospect next year, probs.

:acute: :nono:


I only watch YouTube videos that are embedded.

 

[005]

Well, when I saw it on Twitter, it was the whole "this video cannot be embedded by request" deal.
So didn't know if it would work.
I blame verc.
a-a rhyme scheme aside, pretty cool video.

 

[Scotty's Flat Top]

Unacceptable. Un-ac-cept-ta-ble.
