The Yankee scouts have to be fucked up, though. He has the slow bat rep, but all his hits were from off speed pitches.

The second homer was a fastball and i'm not really sure what the first one was.

I checked before I deleted the game from my Tivo. It broke down and in slightly, which tells me it was a slider. I know it wasn't a fastball. :P

The grand slam was 93 MPH. It was probably a sinker.

 

The 3 run bomb looked like a bad fastball at 85 MPH. It was very straight and didn't have any change up action to it.
