I remember Steve Rogers well from watching the Cubs play the Expos back in the '70s. Rogers had three speeds: slow, slower, and slowest. It looked like the guy was lobbing the ball up to the plate, but the Cubs always had problems with junkball pitchers and Rogers always tied them in knots. "JUST HIT THE BALL!" I'd scream at the TV. "It's like 40 mph! Why can't you just hit the damn thing?"
