PERFECT GAME BY KING FELIX

[MVPete]

The guys on OS say they can't even replicate his change up or w/e that is on MLB The Show. This man is human cheese, not born on this planet.

That's Hellickson, look at how predictable he is compare to Felix who basically throws a different type of pitch almost every single time.

Insane.

what was that 90 MPH pitch he kept striking out guys with?? looked like a change up but at 90 MPH?

cutter?

Pitch F/X classified it as a change up. His cutter is usually around 92 mph.

Crazy good game by Felix.

Either a changeup or a splitter.

Rays Hitting Coach Derek Shelton has been often criticized for his philosophy to hitting since coming to the Rays prior to the 2010 season. Joe Maddon has had his back since Shelton joined the staff and just a few days prior to that perfect game, Maddon publicly stated that the hitting approach and results had to get better. Since that game, the Rays have become the antithesis of what they once were. In this 4-game sweep of the Angels, the Rays were aggressive at the plate and took advantage of a lot of first pitch fastballs that they often would take. The new approach in these last four games produced games of 7, 12, 10 and 8 runs. I'm hoping the Rays continue this approach against Kansas City and Oakland.
