Craig Kimbrel is one of the best relievers in MLB history, but he is also known for his unique pitching mannerisms. Throughout his career, the veteran has looked into the catcher to get signs with his pitching hand extended out like a bird’s wing, before getting set on the mound.
The motion is so specific that many people, usually fans, have had fun mimicking it. On Friday night, though, a fellow MLB player decided to mimic Kimbrel on the mound.
In the Phillies' blowout 13–2 win over the Twins, Minnesota sent outfielder Jordan Luplow to the mound in the eighth inning, and the veteran pulled out Kimbrel’s unique look for a pitch.
