1.  Making batters look confused, silly, off balanced and made

If there is one thing that Yu Darvish can do, it is throw batters off.  He’s able to switch from a 94 MPH fastball to a 59 curve ball with ease.   What is even more amazing about those pitches and the varying speeds is that most of the time they are strikes.

Here are a few clips of Darvish making some amazing pitches.

Yu Darvish freezes Jim Thome with a great pitch to earn the strikeout and get out of the sixth inning (10/5/12)
