White Sox have a tall lefty clocked at 97. Matt Thornton had trouble locating the strike zone but managed the save. Hitters just couldn't lay off it.
Mets have a closer clocked at 97. Billy Wagner had trouble keeping the ball down and lost a game to the Yankees, 5-4.
Braves have a closer clocked at 97. Chris Reitsma lost a save to the D-backs.
-----------------
Yep, ALL BALLS HIGH. Announcers used the terms HIGH RIDING fastball, explosive movement, pitch to the body and not aim at the mitt. It isn't even HOT yet and a lot of those pitches missed HIGH. I kept saying to myself, "Was that ONE, was that ONE, was that ONE?"
Trouble was that one knows NOT when one is thrown or knows NOT what one looks like. So I couldn't be SURE because of my LACK of visual PERCEPTION.
