We’ve seen some positive filth out of pitchers this season like Kodai Senga’s ghost fork or the slurve from Julio Urias that looks unhittable. And don’t forget anything that Jhoan Duran throws for the Twins.
But this? This is disgusting, absurd, wild, I’m running out of words here.
This is a pitch from Milwaukee Brewers rookie Abner Uribe, owner of a 1.69 ERA in 10.2 innings to go along with 12 strikeouts. Dude threw a 99 MPH sinker on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. It’s right there on the outside corner for Jack Suwinski … and then he whiffs at air because that pitch has darted out and away.
WOW:
Abner Uribe, DEMONIC 99mph Sinker. 👿
