One of the Angels’ best relievers in 2022, Herget has struggled early this season but he pitched two perfect innings Tuesday, including a strikeout of Aaron Judge with a rare four-seam fastball.
NEW YORK — Jimmy Herget, who has made a career of getting right-handed hitters out with an assortment of breaking balls, was standing on the mound, with one of baseball’s best righties in the box on Tuesday night.“I knew that he knew I was going to throw a breaking ball, so why not throw a fastball,” Herget said on Wednesday.
Herget then retired left-handed hitting Anthony Rizzo, completing a 24-pitch outing in which he worked two perfect innings, with two strikeouts. Herget said part of the issue was hitters being too prepared for his breaking balls. He throws a tight slider and a curveball most of the time, with occasional changeups and two-seam fastballs.
Herget said the bigger issue he’s faced this season has been not having enough conviction in the breaking pitches he did throw.
