When Penik got that “pitch” I died laughing. I guess that’s what happens when you insult the game, it takes it personally 😂

Justin is wrong. I was smiling the entire time he was freaking out.

That last Shoemaker pitch was a splitter. I got 70% but a lot of my guesses were based off of who the pitcher was and my knowledge of their pitch arsenal 😅

I pitched for 16 years but I was screaming them 🤣 hint sinkers from a right at the end always goes right

Evidently not always, 2:00 This pitch moves exactly like a fourseam lmao. But yeah these guys are missing some very obvious ones. Maybe I just watch too much pitching lol.

@eclay55456 8 ай бұрын

Not the most fair since they can only use broadcasts of the pitches. I hate how they angle most pitchers for games cause it really doesn’t show how nasty some of these pitches are

Give me 20 Kershaw curveballs I would probably do alright.

Damn they're showing some 2-Seamers as 4s and Sinkers from what I'm seeing. Might as well flip a coin on those. A couple of these "4s" snap back towards the pitching hand probably 3 inches lmao.

Went 0 for 6 and the site stopped loading videos, fitting. I do not, in fact, know ball.

The camera angle has alot to do if u see cut or sink on the fastball.

@jaythomaso9311 5 ай бұрын

Right, half of those "sinkers" didn't seem to sink at all

Looked at the Carlos Martinez clip when on 40mg and thought “no way they let him wear a Santa hat during a game” 😂

Penik knows ball more than Jolly. Confirmed

New game idea: Same concept as Refguess but instead of a Baseball Reference page it is Baseball Savant percentiles.

Kinda happy my brain works similar to Peniks lol 😂

7:21. Yes, Walkers slow fast ball is his split finger. This is as much about knowing the pitchers as knowing pitches. Castillo throws a nasty sinker/changeup combo. If its high 90s its his sinker. If its low 90s, its the change up

I got 85% on jolly’s round

@baileysmith4744 8 ай бұрын

The only problem i have with this is the camera angles from the side of the pitcher and not over the top. Sliders look like sinkers and changeups

@sah4128 8 ай бұрын

Dinelson Lamet should’ve been the next version of Andrew Miller (but as a righty)… I hope he crushes overseas and gets a big ole MLB deal in a few years

@user-bt5ed6ic5e 8 ай бұрын

He's throwing Andrew Millers slider did you know that? There's a guy in 2018 who taught hundreds to throw Millers slider from all arm angles.

@russellchung3119 8 ай бұрын

I feel like camera angles make it hard to see what kind of pitch it is. I played travel ball all my life and even I had a tough time. Yes, I did better than them, but I still think that if the video was from the catcher's POV (batter's POV is usually bad cuz of some inevitable head movement on the swing) pitches would be a lot easier to recognize. Plus, we'd have more time than an MLB hitter to decide what pitch it is. With this angle, it's hard to see the cutting action on the cutter and for some of the sliders it looked like it had run. The way to really play this game is to look for pitch grip, but at least for me, that would take two or three replays of the video to catch it.

First try was 75. I also have little to no knowledge of individual's pitch arsenal.

@yesyoucan55 7 ай бұрын

I have never seen a sinker below 90😂

@theedon501 7 ай бұрын

Depending on the angle of each ballpark cam it’s gonna be hard to differentiate between pitches. Cool idea by Savant but doesn’t really work great

5:20 there's no shot that's a slider

It's a slider, don't you know how it's thrown? what do you think is the difference between a cu and Sl?

Also Meh. Not as good as when there’s multiple dudes in the same room. It’s just not it. Just one person guessing pitches into a mic. These aren’t it guys. Swing and a miss. Just not enough happening. Boring. Hard to articulate honestly but u can tell almost immediately when the video just isn’t it
