Brewers rookie reliever Abner Uribe already is making a name for himself among baseball fans despite having thrown just 10 2/3 innings at the MLB level.
During a relief appearance on Sunday, Uribe showcased some devastating movement on his sinker, striking out the Pirates’ Jack Suwinski on a pitch that quite frankly wasn’t even fair.
Suwinski didn’t stand a chance against the 99-mph sinker from Uribe, which broke away from the plate in jaw-dropping fashion. What first appeared to be a hittable pitch for the left-handed batter ended up diving nearly a foot off the plate, in what was one of the nastiest pitches of the 2023 MLB season.
