Good pitchers like Ted Lyons of the White Sox, know how to "cover-up" the ball just before pitching. This is called "making the ball up", that is, fixing your fingers for a curve or a fast pitch or a slow ball. Smart batters can often tell by the way a pitcher holds the ball before he throws it what kind of a pitch it is going to be, and sets himself to swing accordingly. Cover the ball with your glove until the instant that you are ready to start your wind-up or to bring your arm back for the pitch.
Drafted from the Los Angeles Dodgers, Jim had a fine minor league batting record. The outfielder has never hit below .300 in the minors! He was promoted and continued to sock the ball with authority. Last year, Jim was often used as a pinch-hitter. In a game vs. Pittsburgh, he pinch-hit a homer in the 10th inning to beat the Pirates, 3-2.
Yusei's 32 starts in 2019 were the most of any American League rookie. The best of them was a two-hit shutout of the Toronto Blue Jays on August 18.
