Balester should get out of his skid tonight. He's been working on the 4 seam and maybe they won't have him throw it as much tonight. Bally should shake it off if it is called by Bard. Unless they want him to throw it to major League hitters so he can learn on the job for next year. When he threw what he wanted to throw he had two, 7 pitch innings against the Reds. At least that's what it looked like to me while I was at the game in Cincy.
11 of first 12 pitches to the first 2 batters 4 seam fastball. 2 walks.
