Erick Fedde talked, after he struck out a career-high 10 of the 25 batters he faced in a 103-pitch effort against the Miami Marlins in August, about adjusting his curveball grip following a talk with a teammate, left-handed reliever Sam Clay. Fedde threw his curveball 38 times overall in that outing (37% of his 103 pitches, up from a season-average of 17.6% of the time to that point), and generated 21 swings and nine swinging strikes, while recording three called strikes with the pitch, which his manager said was the best curveball he’d seen the 28-year-old throw.
