Smith-Uchida

CCB World Series - Uchida pushed Team Rojko into the winners bracket going CG giving up 1 late hit while striking out 3 and walking 1. The long limbed medium frame found rhythm on the mound from a stretch only delivery where the long arm works over some crossfire delivery from a 3/4 release that made it tough for hitters to square up. FB 76-79 moving to all quadrants and getting lots of 1st pitch strikes for weak contact. 65-69 with short depth having sweep through the zone; he showed strong feel for the pitch using it in and out of the zone. Smith-Uchida went right after hitters all game and didn’t give in when falling behind.
