Sometimes a pitcher NEEDS to bounce a splitter in the dirt in order to set a hitter up. Sometimes a ball is the best pitch you can throw. I'm sure schilling could have thrown every pitch right over the plate like silva, but that isn't the best measurement of a pitcher's control necessarily. <BR/>That said, maddux was still better.McGuire72noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6300012139741038635.post-79177563816060598202009-03-31T18:27:00.000-07:002009-03-31T18:27:00.000-07:00dan-bob - Bring back any terrifying NL Central mem...dan-bob - Bring back any terrifying NL Central memories?
