Rangers | Yu Darvish switches it up

Thu, 17 May 2012 09:34:53 -0700

Texas Rangers SP Yu Darvish said he and C Yorvit Torrealba decided to go with his fastball as an out pitch before his start against the Oakland Athletics Wednesday, May 16. "These teams study me just like I study them," Darvish said through interpreter Joe Furukawa. "In previous starts I was going to my breaking ball as out pitch. Knowing that, I was able to use my fastball hard in and up in the zone to get some outs." He posted his fifth quality start in his last six outings versus the A's. Darvish mixed his pitches well and used his changeup more often than before.
