I saw Devaney in person throwing that ball at Country Club last week, it was not the right layout to match up to the condition. He was using a Blue Vibe on the fresh and then trying to go to a LevRG of Spit Fire as the shot changed. He had a ton of over/under when he moved left.
It was not the ball holding him back, anyone that watched him Friday can attest to that. Not to mention with the lefty nation bowling, pairs were not broken down equally.
