By Jason Middleton

 


Given that baseball has traditionally and habitually invented statistics to apply to game strategy and measuring success, I couldn't pass up the chance to talk with Tyler Kepner this week. 

 

It's still the first month of baseball season, remember, and every team still has a shot at winning. At least, nominally. 

 

Tyler Kepner is a New York Times Baseball Columnist whose new book, K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches, traces the development of each pitch as far back as the 19th century.  

 

Kepner discusses the slider, fastball, curveball, knuckleball, splitter, screwball, sinker, changeup, spitball, and cutter.
