Meanwhile the Grizz are up 13-1. Clay Timpner has four hits and Threets had a perfect inning in relief.

Scratch that, Threets walked two. Didn’t update the box score fast enough for me to catch it.

Threets

does he throw as hard in real-life as he does in mlb 08?

by bondslegend on May 11, 2008 2:52 PM PDT to parent up reply reply   0 recs

How hard does he throw in MLB 2008? I threw 105 in MLB 2006 and tore a back muscle. I missed the whole year.

I don’t think he’s throwing that hard anymore. But he is throwing better location wise and that.
