Waino throws a complete game on his 39th birthday

We all might look back at this picture and say "Oh yeah, I remember when they had to wear masks during that year. Man that was a weird year..."

I truly hope that's how we are going to look back at this picture. But what a special day for Adam Wainwright who had his 39th birthday and was able to pitch a complete game and get the win.

I posted an Instagram story that the young baseball players out there need to really pay attention to this guy. He is not a thrower, he is a true pitcher. 

You see so many young guys throwing 95 to 99 mph today. It's all about how hard you throw. But all the best pitchers in every decade have been able to place their pitches where they need them to be. It's never been exactly about how hard you throw. It's absolutely about where you can place your pitches in the zone. 

In this video Adam Wainwright shows you that a back door curveball placed in the correct place will freeze a hitter every time. He lived on that back door curveball today.
