Yu Darvish Throws 55 MPH Curve to Torii Hunter

Beautifully slow.

Last weekend, Yu Darvish struck out Adam Lind with an eephus-like slow curve. The Rangers' ace on Thursday dropped a 55 MPH curve ball to Torii Hunter. The slow pitch was called a ball this time, but you could tell by Hunter's priceless reaction that it caught him off guard.

Between this pitch and the one thrown to Lind, hitters are going to have to start watching out for Darvish's slow stuff.
