Duran discovered the signature pitch by accident during a bullpen session in 2018. This season, he’s thrown the pitch nearly 40% of the time and is holding opponents to a .221 average.

Duran thought his electric entrance was too good to leave behind. The Twins agreed. After trading him, they helped the Phillies recreate it.

Those four pitches were all splitters as Duran finished out a Phillies comeback victory over the Tigers to take the series opener -- and regain first place in the National League East. In one of the most electrifying games of the year, Duran stole the show in his debut.
