I went after hitters just off the plate at 0-2. One time in Legion ball (we didn’t have travel then) I hung an 0-2 curve. The intent was to have the hitter back off the plate (lefty on lefty) for a called third on the inside corner. He hit a three point homer. It’s what I called it because the hanger he hit sailed through the goalposts on the football field behind the right field fence. To that point it was the farthest anyone had ever hit a ball off me.
