Holder was hanging his curve. New bats and his fastball saved him in that outing.


You left out wind. Holder's fastball works when he is locating his wicked curve. He didn't get his curve yesterday and almost pooped in his nest trying to find it. If his curve is working, he is pretty much shut down. Runners on base seem to bother him lately - not good for a closer.

Holder's breaker hasn't been nearly as sharp the past two weeks, that's for sure...

And yes, both catchers call games for us. They didn't initially -- but since they are both seniors that have proven trustworthy handling our staff, we let them call it 95% of the time.

I think we've also seen a new trend with these good teams also sitting dead red on the breaker, which is an approach we hadn't seen this season against him...
