 1. Could you tell us your story on dropping down?

My story is thanks to my father. He taught me pitching mechanics 8 years ago and I still need to learn more.I looked for that style of pitching because it is an advantage against the batter due to the pitching angle since there are not many who throw like that.

 

 2. What are some of the advantages you have from your arm angle?

 I think that the angle is the biggest advantage, it is not usual and for that reason the hitters are not used to that angle. Pitches move differently than overhand pitches.

 3. If you didn't drop down, do you think you would have had the same success?

 I do not know. But I think so because I have worked hard to achieve what little I have earned.

 4. What would you tell someone debating on changing their arm angle?

you will be a different pitcher, with a unique style and that is incredible

 

 5. Are there any mechanical tips that you'd give to someone throwing sidearm/submarine?

Having balance and fluid mechanics will make it easier for you to pitch.

6. What pitches do you throw?

 sinker, slider, change up and fastball

  7. How do you pitch to lefties/righties?

i throw inside vs righties with the sinker and go away whit slider. Vs leftys i throw sinker down and fastball up in the zone, i finished with change up.

 

 8. What is your favorite part about pitching from down there?

I like to be different, that they see me strange sometimes is to see strange hitters when seeing a well-thrown pitch.
