Rockies’ closer Daniel Bard back on track after key adjustments

Posted Jun 7, 2021
Velocity has never been a problem for Colorado Rockies closer Daniel Bard. Not with a fastball that averages 98.1 mph and a slider that cuts across the plate at 87.4. But the right-hander was struggling to locate his pitches earlier this season and after a disaster on May 2 at Arizona, his ERA had soared to 9.00. On Sunday, however, he shut down Oakland.
