Wow is that a nasty pitch. I remember Ron Luciano in one of his books talking about he basically never saw any of Nolan Ryan's pitches because they were so fast, and had to guess if they were strikes, and I feel like the only way a hitter can hit Joyce is just to swing and hope, because seeing that ball in real time coming at you has to be next to impossible.
The four seamer at 102mph in the zone is hard enough to hit. As you said your best bet is get that bat going early and hope it is the one that flies straight, not the one that moves 18 inches.
