Entirely Pandering GIF: Yordano Ventura’s Curveball Yesterday

Largely famous for his very celeritous fastball, Kansas City right-hander Yordano Ventura recorded six of his 10 strikeouts on Monday night against San Diego via his very sufficient curveball (box).

It was the author’s intention, initially, to celebrate that curveball and the beauty within it via a painstakingly composed post. What a combination both of (a) wisdom and (b) sloth have revealed, however, is that the world would contain the same exact amount of Truth and Beauty were he (i.e. that same author) merely to embed here an animated GIF of Ventura’s curveball from Monday that produced the most vertical break — in this case, to strike out very large Kyle Blanks in the fourth inning from that same game.
