Tampa Bay Rays RP Joel Peralta, who recorded his first save of the year Wednesday, May 2, hasn't let in an earned run in his last 10 outings (9 2/3 frames) and has allowed just three hits in that time. He struggled earlier in the season, and his long-time pitching coach Fausto Mejia, flew in from the Dominican Republic to work with him. "He saw things that probably only he could notice, because he was the one who built me, you know," Peralta said. "And I've been that same guy for 13 years. He saw it and fixed it right away."

Tampa Bay Rays RP Joel Peralta held lefties to a line of .212/.278/.318 in 2010 in just 72 plate appearances. In 2011, he held left-handed hitters to a .155 (17-for-110) average, which was the second lowest mark for relievers with a minimum of 100 at-bats and the lowest single-season mark in Rays history.

Peralta's offspeed pitch, a split-fingered fastball, has been the biggest reason for his ability to retire lefties with great success. He is throwing it to lefties 30 percent of the time since 2010, and those hitters swung and missed on more than 25 percent of those pitches. Lefties swung and missed on 35 percent of their swings on his splitters. Peralta avoided the inside corner of the plate with his splitters against left-handers, too.
