It is interesting that most games I’ve seen (including baseball mogul and ea sports baseball have always had the sinker and two-seamer as two seperate pitches. I wonder why that is? With all the baseball I watch and follow I never really realized a sinker and a two seamer were the same thing. It’s kind of embarassing but I am guessing even most announcers don’t make the distinction or i would have picked up on this long ago. I have even read the Neyer/James book on pitchers and still didn’t pick up on this. I played 12 years of baseball but never pitched. I’ll use that as my excuse!

I think that varies some from pitcher to pitcher.

Sorry, should have been sinker. I’ll fix it.

a 2 seam fastball is a sinker

you said the team believes Morton has benefitted from bringing back his 2-seam fastball… Did you mean his sinker? or has he actually brought back 2 pitches from the grave
