The Movement On Yu Darvish's Slider Has My Mind In A Damn Pretzel

Annnnnnd that’s why they say hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports. I mean what in the FUCK is that? I would lay down in the batter’s box and weep tears if you even threatened to throw that thing at me. Inside corder to opposite box in about 50 feet. That’s just preposterous. I’ve seen backyard videos of those losers who record themselves playing wiffle ball that didn’t have movement like that and, to be clear, they were throwing wiffle balls. Perhaps even juiced wiffle balls with rocks inside them to make them move even more fuckily. But Darvish is doing this with a real ball and it’s impressive, that’s my main point here, this is impressive.

Don’t see how the Texas Rangers lose to the Houston Astros in game 3 of the World Series tonight with Darvish spinning that. But that’s why they play the games, folks.
