This pitch is absolutely brilliant.

Take note that I think it registered higher on the radar gun than a Jamie Moyer fastball, and more accuracy than the Orioles bullpen.

What should we call this pitch? Red Sox Monster suggest Goofball.

0	(Edited by MrNFL) That's like the behind the back, forward fake, reverse eephus or something. That'd be a fun pitch to see in the MLB, it'd make the batters say "WTF???" What's funny is that ump called it a strike, and it looked like a ball lol.

0	dang.... If some batter got wise to that pitch, man, that would be like cherry bombing a baseball! It is funny as hell to watch though-- that almost looks like a goofy trick pitch in wiffle ball!

No crowd, the batter doesn't look into it, and the way the players are at the benches.
