No, not “this”

re: Shores must throw the flattest 100 mph in baseball

Posted by reauxl tigers on 5/15/25 at 9:19 pm

“Flat” has sort of the opposite definition now than it used to.

Having a flat fastball means it has a very high spin rate and has little to no dip between the mound and the plate. It’s called “induced vertical break”. Higher induced vertical break means a better/flatter fastball.

Pitchers like Cowen and Evans have high iVB on their fastball. Cowen has a great fastball because of this AND because his attack angle is low, so when he throws a fastball at the top of the zone, it’s almost like a riser. It produces a lot of underneath swings.

Shores has really low iVB, a higher attack angle cuz 6’8, and average extension. So he’s got empty velocity at 97-99. He needs better command of his secondaries and can’t leave his fastball over the plate or it’ll get crushed, as it usually does.

Not even close

Teams have figured out his one nasty pitch since his fastball isn’t elite at 91-93

his fastball is one of the better ones on the team because it’s flat and his vertical angle of attack is really good. He also has good extension.

I’d let him at least start the 9th in hopes of a quick one. DeGrom is one of the few pitchers I’d rather not push his pitch count.

Tell your LSU student to grab a seat as close to the front as possible so their name is called early, then you can haul arse over to the high school.

I remember tailgating for the LSU/Southern game in 2023. It was really hot and someone came up to our tailgate and asked for a water, we politely gave them one.

Next thing you know, one after another came asking for “free water”. It was like we got caught feeding a stray cat and word got out to all the other stray cats around the neighborhood.

I have some great childhood memories there. Would love for it to be delivered from the current hell scape it has turned into.

Revert prices back to whatever they were in the early 2000’s before the downfall and adjust for inflation.

ESPN has a weird obsession with these as well as player interviews.

North end zone is best view, PA system is more clear, louder because you’re right next to the student section, closer to LSU players during warmups. If you sit in the lower bowl of the North end zone, you’ll feel much more a part of the pregame atmosphere especially. I’ve been sitting there my whole life and would prefer it over sideline seats. Nothing like the feeling of having the whole stadium bearing down on you.
