By now chances are you know that Dodgers reliever Brusdar Graterol has some of the nastiest stuff in the league and that he can reach triple digits on the radar gun while looking like he’s barely even trying to throw the ball with any type of speed behind it.
Well, he did it again last night in the Dodgers’ season-saving, 7-2, win in Game 4 of their NLDS with the Giants and this pitch might be the biggest head-scratcher of the season.
I say that because I have no idea how Graterol made this 102.5 mph sinker look so darn easy.
