chadwick lee `` chad '' bradford -lrb- born september 14 , 1974 -rrb- is a former major league baseball -lrb- mlb -rrb- relief pitcher .
he was well known for his extreme submarine-style pitching , and his success in mlb despite his unconventional delivery and the slow speed at which he threw the ball -lrb- his fastball was only in the mid 80-mph range -rrb- .
this led to him figuring prominently in the michael lewis book `` moneyball '' , which in 2011 was made into the film of the same title .
bradford is played by actor casey bond in the film .
