The uncommitted junior right-hander turned in one of the best pitched games that we've seen this season. Last Friday, the Tors gave Shove-Knox the ball against district-rival Barbe and he was nothing short of brilliant. He was able to loacte his 85-88 mph FB in, out, and up against RHH & LHH, and the pitched showed good life through the zone with spin rates up to 2382 RPM's. Shove-Knox's feel for spin is what really stood out though, as he showed two distinct breaking balls. His 72-76 mph CB had "11-5" shape and was used mainly as a "get-me-over" offering, and his 74-76 mph SL flashed some sweep across the zone with some depth and was used as a two-strike pitch. Both breaking balls consistently registered elite spin rates up to 2932 RPM's. He finished the outing with a loss, but anyone who was in attendance last Friday night knows that he more than deserved to win, as he tossed 6 2/3 IP and gave up only 3 H (all singles) and 0 ER with 1 BB and 8 K's. A fantastic performance for Shove-Knox to build on moving forward.
