Graph of the Day: Harden and Greinke Fastball Locations

Stay connected for news and updates

I happened to notice a difference in fastball locations between Zack Greinke and Rich Harden. Does Harden go up and out of the zone more by design, since he really throws two pitches? Greinke has a wide arsenal at his disposal.

The gray box is the approximate region of the strike zone, which accentuates the difference between the two pitchers.
