Rockies’ Austin Gomber counting on two-seamer to sink opponents

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:33:33 GMT

SAN DIEGO — Austin Gomber is not a grip-it-and-rip-it pitcher. The Rockies’ southpaw utilizes a plus changeup and an effective curveball to confound hitters.But he went into the offseason knowing that he needed to add something new if he wanted to keep hitters honest. So he fiddled with a new grip and started throwing a sinking, two-seam fastball in January. He believes it compliments his four-seamer, which he tends to throw up in the zone.“I felt like hitters were starting to sit on my off-speed stuff, so we thought, how can I make my fastball more effective?” said Gomber, who’ll make his first start of the season on Sunday against the Padres at Petco Park.Last season, when Gomber was relegated to the bullpen for part of the season, his four-seamer was often an ineffective pitch. He threw it 40% of the time but hitters teed off on the pitch, hitting .376.Part of the Nolan Arenado trade with St. Louis before the 2021 season, Gomber was terrific in his f...

FORT COLLINS — At CSU last April, you either sank or swam with Jay Norvell.This April, you belly flop.Officials worked the 11-on-11 portions late in Saturday morning’s practice outside Canvas Stadium. During one red-zone trip, somebody along the Rams offense jumped. A yellow flag shot to the sky like a bottle rocket.PHWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!The scrimmaging … stopped. The talking … stopped. The milling … stopped.A millisecond of uncomfortable, awkward silence hung in the chilly brunch air. Then every CSU player — offense, defense, on the field or on the sidelines — immediately plopped onto their bellies and started doing a quick set of up-downs.“Yeah, we incorporated that, (that if) we have a false start on offense, we started doing up-downs for penalties,” Norvell, the Rams’ second-year coach, explained later. “Just a reminder to concentrate and focus.”If spring 2022 was about the install in FoCo, kids, spring 2023 is about the details. 3-9 te...

OAKLAND — For two innings, the debut of Athletics right-hander Shintaro Fujinami seemed too good to be true.Which was exactly the case.The Los Angeles Angels chased Fujnami with an 11-run third inning in a 13-1 win over the Athletics Saturday at the Coliseum before a crowd of 15,757.Including two inherited runners that scored on long reliever Adam Oller, Fujinami finished giving up eight earned runs in 2 1/3 innings, with an ERA that will sit at 30.86 until his second start next Saturday.“Could have been better, obviously, but I was glad to get on a big league mound,” Fujinami said through translator Issei Kamada.  “But getting on a big league mound is not good enough and next time I’ll try to do better.”Athletics manager Mark Kotsay chose do dwell on the first six outs rather than nine hitters than reached base in the third before he came out to take the ball from his 28-year-old Japanese import.“The first two innings I thought Fuji was gre...
