Wang seeking right 'balance' Saturday, March 08, 2008 BY ED PRICE Star-Ledger Staff TAMPA, Fla. -- The mechanical problem that led to Chien-Ming Wang's rocky outing Thursday also was present during his poor performances in last year's postseason, pitching coach Dave Eiland said yesterday. "It's a simple adjustment," Eiland said. "It's just a matter of executing it." Eiland and Wang yesterday went over video from Thursday's game against Cincinnati, in which Wang allowed six runs on six hits and two walks and retired just two batters. According to Eiland, Wang has been "collapsing" his back leg. When he reaches the balance point of his delivery, Wang is leaning back, and thus he drifts forward in his delivery and drags his arm behind. That keeps Wang from getting his hand on top of the ball, and his sinkers and sliders stay up. "It's getting the top half in sync with the bottom half," Eiland said. Wang worked on the adjustment -- "staying tall," as Wang put it -- yesterday on flat ground without a ball and will throw off a mound today. His next start is scheduled for Tuesday against Toronto. In last year's Division Series against Cleveland, Wang had a 19.06 ERA over two starts, allowing 12 runs on 14 hits in 5 2/3 total innings. http://tinyurl.com/2xt7wh -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.109.23.103
