Webb, 26, is dishing out tips, and his teammates are listening. Sam Long, Sean Hjelle and Jakob Junis have all picked up Webb’s changeup grip this spring.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Sam Long pulled out his iPhone and opened one of his recent pictures.
“They sat me down and showed me some numbers,” Long said, “if I could get a little more depth on it would be even more effective.”The owner of one of the game’s best changeups, Webb, you might think, would be hesitant about sharing trade secrets.“It just wasn’t moving how I wanted it to. I didn’t know why. I was throwing the grip they wanted me to and it just wasn’t moving as much,” Long recalled. “And just showed me what worked for him. It wasn’t anything crazy, just a little short quick tip.
“Just the way he holds it and the way his arm action works, he gets this spin where you can just see the top of the ball rotating and it has that depth to it,” Junis said. “That’s what we’re all trying to do. We’re all trying to emulate that.”
