Editing Alan Embree (section)

==Pitching style==
Embree relied primarily on two pitches: a 90–95&nbsp;MPH [[four-seam fastball]] and a sharp [[Slider (baseball)|slider]]. In his younger days, Embree's fastball was clocked as high as 96–98&nbsp;mph. During his time with the Red Sox, he began to throw his fastball at slightly lower velocity in order to avoid injuring his arm. He also refined his slider into an effective pitch, whereas before, he had relied almost exclusively on his blazing fastball.
