"If you can get a guy to pull your best fastball, you've got him. He has no chance unless he has been guessing. If he normally hits that way, he can't hit any kind of breaking ball or off-speed pitch." - Larry Dierker in Baseball Turf War Focuses on Inner Part of Plate (Baseball Digest : August 1998)
