Logan Webb is showing significant growth as a pitcher this season, utilizing refined mechanics and an enhanced pitch mix to lead the San Francisco Giants effectively. In a recent game against the Houston Astros, he delivered a quality start, allowing only one earned run over seven innings along with striking out six batters. His strategy involved a diverse five-pitch arsenal, leaning heavily on his sinker and cutter, while still being recognized for his effectiveness as a groundball pitcher. Webb's performances underscore the importance of adaptability in his role as the team’s ace.
As far as mixing it up, Webb continued employing a five-pitch mix after doing so in Cincinnati, relying primarily on his sinker and sweeper while mixing in changeups, four-seam fastballs, and cutters.
It's just a different look for me, Webb said. What isn't different is Webb's identity as a groundball pitcher.
