"Naturally the hitter is expecting the screwball. They know that's my bread-and-butter pitch. He knows what's coming and I have to stop him, even so. But I have two speeds on the screwball- and once in a while I can throw a fastball past a hitter." - Luis Arroyo in "Late in Close: A History of Relief Pitching (Paul Votano, 2002)
