At the beginning of his first Spring Training with the Giants in 2007, Zito unveiled a new pitching delivery intended to add power to his fastball and off-speed pitches.
December 28, 2006: Barry Zito agrees to a record 7-year, $126 million contract with the San Francisco Giants, across the Bay from his former team, the Oakland A's.
Zito: My strengths are my fastball, my curveball and my change. Mix in that fastball away and the fastball up in the zone. For the most part, it's just sticking with my game.
