Pitching style

The velocity of Zito's four-seam fastball has diminished, it's currently one of the slowest in the Major Leaugues clocked in the low 80s while occasionally reaching 85mph.[24] He augments it with a changeup, and a traditional "12-6" curveball that's very slow but sharp. It was voted as the best curveball in the Major Leagues in a player poll conducted by ESPN The Magazine, the curveball is also Zito's strikeout pitch. Since mid-2004, Zito has added a two-seam fastball and a slider to his arsenal, though the curveball is still used more often. Zito's velocity and command are the key components of his struggle, his velocity does not allow him to overpower hitters, it places him in the same class as veterans Greg Maddux, and Jamie Moyer, but Zito does not possess the same type of command. A four-seam fastball, is a pitch in baseball and a variant of the straight fastball. ... This article does not cite any references or sources. ...

Personal life

Zito is known for his idiosyncrasies, and his offbeat personality. He has earned the nicknames "Planet Zito" and "Captain Quirk".[25] He once made it a practice to buy his own autographed baseball cards on eBay; when asked why he bought them at auction for high prices rather than acquiring unsigned cards and signing them himself, Zito replied, "Because they're authenticated."[citation needed] Despite batting and throwing left-handed, Zito signs autographs for fans at the ballpark right-handed. This article is about the online auction center. ...


At his introductory press conference with the Giants, Zito said he liked the way his uniform number 75 looked, because the 7 and the 5 are like a "shelf" to hold the name "Zito" up. He carries pink satin pillows on the road, collects stuffed animals (such as a good luck teddy bear, with which he used to travel), and burns incense to relax.[26] Early in his career, Zito dyed his hair blue. He plays guitar, surfs, practices yoga, and follows Zen. He has done yoga poses in the outfield, and meditates before games.[27] In 2001, Zito espoused a universal life force that he credited with his midseason turnaround.[26] His mother Roberta named him after her brother Barry, a beatnik “freethinker” and acolyte of Zen who mysteriously vanished in 1964 at the age of 22 near Big Sur, California.[28] For other uses such as Yoga postures, see Yoga (disambiguation) Statue of Shiva performing Yogic meditation Yoga (Sanskrit: योग Yog, IPA: ) is a group of ancient spiritual practices designed for the purpose of cultivating a steady mind. ...
