I'm curious on what Astros fans saw on Framber's meltdown.
I get his comments on him deviating from the plan and taking responsibility, but I'm curious what that means.
He had 56PC going into the 5th... so he wasn't tired and his pitch selection appears to be similar to earlier ABs, in terms of Pitch and velocity.
92-96 Sinker
88-91 Change
78-82 Curve
This may not be 100% correct...
Innings:1: 12 Sinkers; 10 Curves
2: 4 Sinkers; 3 Curves
3: 6 Sinkers; 3 Curves; 2 Changeups; 2 FSFB
4: 3 Sinkers; 1 Curve; 10 Changeups
5: 12 Sinker; 4 Curves; 9 Changeups
I get it... 2nd time through the order, you introduce your Changups... a FSFB a couple times.
Looks like in previous games Framber uses his Changeup as his out pitch 2nd time through. In this game, he got blasted for 3 HRs.
He led off Schanuel with a Change and Schanuel was probably sitting on that pitch coming in.
He led off O'Hopped with a Curve and it was sent deep.
Adell then got a 1st pitch Sinker that went deep.
That's all 3 pitches. I didn't dig into the R/L or pitch selection per hitter... although:
Schanuel was led off with sinkers in his 1st 2 AB before getting the Change.
O'Hoppe got a Curve, then Sinker, before the Curve HR.
Adell got a Sinker, then Curve, then Sinker.
Just asking for a friend for a future opportunity.
