Atlanta Braves pitcher John Gant made his big-league debut on Wednesday, and wow, this is how he actually pitches.

Like, this is his actual delivery.

The Nationals’ announcers had no idea what to make of it. They thought Gant — being a Georgia native — was nervous to pitch in front of his hometown crowd. Nope. That is how he pitches ALL OF THE TIME.

Here’s proof:

That shimmy, stutter-step thing? Yes. That delay in the middle of the delivery? Yes.

Gant worked his way up a minor-league system and went through countless pitching coaches with that delivery. Think about that. It is a testament to his stubbornness.

It’s so strange that it’s amazing. It’s the highlight of the Braves’ season thus far.
