On Saturday, Brock Holt set the MLB record for throwing the slowest pitch to be a called strike in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008) when he threw a 31 mph eephus pitch for a perfect called strike during a relief appearance for the Rangers. (Thanks, Joe Graves and Mike Ross!)
On Sunday, Brock’s wife Lakyn tweeted: “So much backyard/attic BP with Griff prepared him for this moment… practice does pay off..” (Thanks, Walt Greenberg!)
