Nick Martinez Chats with a Fellow Pitching Aficionado: Clayton Kershaw
Nick Martinez: Hey Clayton! I can’t believe we’re finally getting to chat like this. I’ve admired your pitching for years. How are things going over in L.A.?
Clayton Kershaw: Thanks, Nick! It’s been a busy season, but we’re hanging in there. I must say, I’ve been keeping an eye on your games too. You’ve really brought some fire to the mound this year.
Nick Martinez: Appreciate that, man. I’ve been experimenting a lot with my pitches, trying to keep hitters on their toes. Speaking of, what’s your go-to pitch when you need that crucial out?
Clayton Kershaw: No surprises here, it’s the curveball. It’s been my bread and butter for years. How about you? What’s your magic weapon?
Nick Martinez: Lately, it’s been the changeup. Throws them off just enough to get those groundouts. But I’ve been dabbling with a cutter recently. Just trying to mix things up, you know?
Clayton Kershaw: I hear that. Diversifying your pitches keeps the hitters guessing. Any quirky routines or superstitions you stick to before games?
Nick Martinez: Oh man, quirky is right. I always have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before every game. It’s like my good luck charm. How about you?
Clayton Kershaw: Nice choice! For me, it’s the pre-game yoga. Helps keep me loose and focused. Plus, nothing beats the feeling of stretching out before a big game.
Nick Martinez: Totally. Mental prep is half the battle. Speaking of which, any advice for dealing with the pressure in high-stakes situations?
Clayton Kershaw: Honestly, it’s all about remembering why you love the game. When the pressure’s on, I think back to being a kid, just enjoying the sport. It helps take the edge off. What about you?
Nick Martinez: Same here. I remind myself it’s just another pitch, another batter. Keeps me grounded. Well, Clayton, it’s been awesome chatting with you. Let’s keep making those batters work for it!
Clayton Kershaw: Absolutely! Best of luck with the rest of your season, Nick. Let’s keep the pitching craft strong!
