Sean Burnett moved across the rubber and changed his season http://tinyurl.com/3dxfhrx 撷取部分原文： In that meeting, Burnett turned his year around by moving 18 inches. Burnett requested he move across the pitching rubber, from the third base side of the slab to the first base side. McCatty relented. Burnett threw a bullpen session, pinch-hitter Matt Stairs standing at the plate and offering feedback. He pitched in a game that night from the first base side, and he has not stopped since. The results have been dramatic, a small change making a huge difference. Since Burnett switched sides of the rubber, he has appeared in 22 games and allowed three earned runs in 19 2 / 3 innings, good for a 1.37 ERA. “He’s been as good as anybody I’ve had out there for the last 30 games,” Manager Davey Johnson said. The only thing Burnett changed was his position on the rubber, which changed everything. Burnett grew up pitching from the left side of the rubber, which, along with his funky, three-quarters delivery prevented left-handed hitters from seeing the ball coming out of his hand and made the ball seem strangely far away to right-handed hitters. ‧‧‧‧‧‧ 阿香 7/19 被斧头帮的小麦肯干了支追平分HR，一气之下怒改投球动作，将自由脚 从靠近三垒侧改到一垒侧。奇妙的是自从阿香移动了这小小的18英寸距离後，打者 们就再也碰不到球了；不仅左打者看不清楚阿香的出手和球的来向，连右打者也觉 得球看起来简直是莫名的远。 阿香表示：我从小投到大自由脚本来就都是靠一垒的，但这招必须要将手臂完全延 伸才办得到；可恨05年我受伤动了TJ手术，06年回来後我自认没办法跟过去一样延 展手臂，所以我只好把这招封印起来，改将自由脚移动到靠近三垒。 去年我投得不错，然而今年我糟得一蹋糊涂，於是我告诉 Cat (投教) 我决定死马 当活马医，重新将自由脚移回到一垒，结果之後我整个人都神了！不只是我们队上 的 Ankiel 和梯叔夸我现在变得比以前更难打，连其他队的打者们在观看打击练习 时都觉得我的投球角度有够GY，让他们感到更加棘手；老大哥 Livo 也鼓励我继续 这样做。现在我投起球来感觉更加舒服，能够找回以前、也是最熟悉的投球方式真 的是一件很棒的事。 --
