News: Yu Darvish's 5 pitches in one picture - BEST GIF SINCE NYANCAT

Yu Darvish, pitcher for the Texas Rangers, is having a great start to the season, with four wins in five games, an ERA 1.65, leading the league on strikeouts with 49, on an 18 inning scoreless streak, not a single home-run given, and coming oh-so-close to a perfect game. The half-Japanese/half-Iranian pitcher from Osaka is a batters nightmare at the moment. The way things are going, he's going to be the best Japan has ever produced.

In his last game against the Los Angles Angels on Wednesday, he again showed his magic allowing only 3 hits and no runs whilst punching-out 11 batters in six innings.

This one Gif (created by redditors DShep) truly shows how amazing Darvish is:

an accurate depiction of what it feels like for a batter facing him

DShep states the gif was  "An experiment in showing a variety of pitch types in a unique way. Used 5 pitches from last night; a 97 mph 4 seam fastball, 96 mph 2 seam fastball, 85 mph slider, 78 mph slider with a different grip that is more vertical, and a 64 mph slow curve."

Apart from it looking so-damn awesome, what is interesting is how the motion and release and speed of the 5 pitches are almost identical to a point... So I guess the only way your gonna get a hit off this guy is sacrificing your first born!

What's even more scary is it is claimed that he has another 5 pitches. Yeah, not even Chris Brown can hit this! (below-the-belt?)
