SURPRISE, Ariz. -- A pitch right-hander Brian Bannister wanted to introduce during the World Series makes its first appearance in a game situation on March 1 in the Royals' Cactus League opener against the Angels.
It's a two-seam fastball, a pitch the 25-year-old developed during his month-long stint in the Mexican League last October while the New York Mets competed in the National League Division and Championship Series.
"All I worked on when I was in Mexico was the two-seamer," said Bannister, who is scheduled to pitch two innings against the Angels in Tempe. "It's going to be a great pitch for me."
