The Official Site of The Milwaukee Brewers: News: Notes: Sheets finds comfortable slot
TUCSON, Ariz. -- Ben Sheets found his arm slot and apparently some peace of mind.
The Brewers right-hander worked two perfect innings in his Spring Training debut Saturday, needing only 16 pitches to retire all six Colorado Rockies hitters he faced. It was a solid start for a soon-to-be 30-year-old coming off another injury-shortened season and heading into a contract year.
"I feel a little stronger this year," Sheets said. "I feel like I've got the better arm slot, and that's why I feel stronger. ... The ball is just livelier out of that slot."
