    Agree 100% with this video. When I was pitching, I threw a knuckle curve. I changed the position of my arm to make it move across or down, but never snapped my arm at the end. Never had issues with my arm and the curve was devastating.

    This guy is describing a drop curve.. I was both a pitcher and a switch hitter .. right handed horseshoe seam curve balls were the easiest breaking pitch for me to hit .. i went to the opposite field right handed and pulled the chit out of them left handed .. both for extra bases .. in Legion, College and AA ball .. I always used my middle finger on the seam in the horseshoe or on one of the double seams .. I also threw a radical breaking knuckle curve around 65mph .. difficult to control that instant break ..but lots of SO .. great for a 3-2

    good advise kids, don't start throwing this thing too early, wait to about 14 when you're bigger and stronger, and like he says, learn a real good change up, work on your location and different speeds and you'll have success, then work on the breaking balls around high school.

  • @alexh8613
    @alexh86135 жыл бұрын

    I would throw my slider similar to this, and then slide my fingers down, so that my pointer finger was on the seam for my curve instead of my middle finger. This creates a bigger slower curve ball with a lot of break. Creating a 3rd speed works wonders. It makes the slider look a lot more like the fastball and gets the hitter out in front of the curve. You also get a lot of foolish swings at the curve, because of the difference in speed.

    From Dr. Mike Marshall Cy Young Winner Kinesiologist drmikemarshall.com I have taught and trained over 150 college and professional baseball pitchers. Not one of these over 150 baseball pitchers have ever: 01. Ruptured their Ulnar Collateral Ligament, 02. Torn the insertion of the Biceps Brachii muscle to the superior lip of the Glenoid Fossa (SLAP tear) or 03. Injured the attachments of the Subscapularis, Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus or Teres Minor muscles (rotator cuff). As Dr. Fleisig wrote in his second sentence: "While the current study provides no direct measurement of injury risk, the biomechanical data do provide shoulder and elbow kinetic parameters." When 'real' researchers do not find direct measurements of injury risk, they do not further speculate on what might happen. To make these suppositions, Dr. Fleisig has to have biomechanically analyzed baseball pitchers that had simular numbers that my baseball pitchers had that at some time after their biomechanical analysis suffered these injuries. That Dr. Fleisig was not able to recognize that, instead of using their Pectoralis Major muscle to horizontally pull their pitching upper arm curvi-linearly forward, my baseball pitchers used their Latissimus Dorsi muscel to vertically drive their pitching upper arm recti-linearly forward shows that Dr. Fleisig does not have the requisite anatomical knowledge to determine the causes of pitching injuries. The still photographs in the four biomechanical analyses that Dr. Fleisig provided clearly shows that my baseball pitchers turn the back of their nearly vertical pitching upper arm to face toward home plate. For thirty plus years, Dr. Fleisig's ineptitude has increased and extended the epidemic of pitching injuries that today's baseball pitchers of all ages suffer. Dr. Andrews reported that the number of youth baseball pitchers rupturing their Ulnar Collateral Ligaments has increased 700 percent. With his recommendations, Dr. Fleisig contributed to the pitching injuries problem. In 1975, at the Southern California AAU Sportsmedicine Seminar in Los Angeles, CA, I presented "Longitudinal Effects of Adolescent Throwing Injuries." With regard to injury-free baseball pitching techniques, to prevent injuries to the pitching elbow, I emphasized 'pitching forearm pronation,' and to prevent injuries to the pitching shoulder, I emphasized 'pitching upper arm inward rotation.' In numerous presentations throughot the remainder of the 1970 decade, I repeatedly explained how to pitch every day without fatigue or injury. Unfortunately, to their detriment, baseball pitchers continued to use the 'traditional' baseball pitching motion. Until 'BASEBALL' makes the adjustments that I recommend, the epidemic of pitching injuries will continue.

    Hey very on point response by you, way to address facts, Tom House knows more than Dr. Mike Marshall, and you are an authority on how to throw curveballs without injury by way of making a small adjustment to the standard pitching motion. This is fantastic. You are dismissive of what Mike Marshall says, and so I realize that you and Tom House must be right. Surely your finding will all but eliminate pitching injuries, and your incisive, accurate, and well-researched YT videos will remain as testimony to this most significant achievement .

    House has admitted to using anabolic steroids in the 1970s making him one of the earliest players to admit to using performance-enhancing drugs. In an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, he described his use of steroids as "a failed experiment", although he increased from around 190 pounds to around 220 while using them. He viewed the experience as a failure since the extra muscle did not enhance his substandard 82-MPH fastball, while the drugs contributed to knee problems, eventually necessitating a total of seven operations. He claims to have stopped using them after learning in college classes during the off-season about the potential long-term effects of steroid use.

    So you're aware of the research that a properly thrown curve DOES NOT put any more stress on the arm than any other pitch yet you're still tethered to old school and statistically unsupported belief NOT to throw it before a certain age. You may have a toe in the water but you're still afraid to get wet. Either you trust the data or you don't and you trust your instruction or you don't. The problem isn't about throwing a curve, it's about how MUCH you're throwing the curve which should be around 20-23/24%. Learning how to mix pitches and changing speeds is MUCH more important than over throwing a specialty pitch. My son was 10 when he started throwing a curve in games in addition to a fastball, change, and slider. He pitched his team to the Championship game that year, and about a week and a half before the game, I was out scouting our next opponent as was a coach from the team we'd eventually meet in the Championship game. We got to talking and during the conversation he let slip that he thought my son was throwing a breaking ball "about 80% of the time". I almost busted out laughing because the true number was 22% and that was split between the curve and slider. He was throwing the fastball a little less than 50% of the time and the change about 30-33% yet the coach was under the impression that my son was throwing it "about 80%". We worked VERY hard on pitch selection to leave the impression he was throwing breaking balls more than he was but even in my wildest dreams I never thought someone would think it was that much so I knew we were already in their heads. How do you leave THAT strong of an impression?... you throw it mostly to the other team's 3-4-5 hitters because that's who the coaches are mainly focused on. They're not really paying attention to how their 7-8-9 batters are being pitched. When the middle of the lineup comes up that's who their attention is on because that's who they're expecting to drive in the runs to win the games with. The "formula" was easy... he was allowed 1 breaking pitch per batter through the first 6 batters. He was allowed a second breaking pitch but he had to earn it by getting ahead in the count 0-2 or 1-2. The back end of the lineup 7-12 would be attacked with just fastballs and changes because they were the weak part of the lineup and could be pitched out with just those 2 pitches. At that level, nobody is charting pitches so they weren't able to figure out how we attacked them. Another thing to remember is the arm needs time to rest and repair those micro-tears that occur over a long season. Pitch counts help but many kids play travel ball so 70 pitches on a Tuesday night and another 70 pitches in a weekend tournament is just too many pitches. When the arm is fatigued, every subsequent pitch has the equivalent effect of 3 pitches on a rested arm so damage can and will occur rapidly.

    I am aware of such research that states that the CB is no more stressful on the elbow than a FB. The point of the video was to show what I believe to be the most effective and efficient way to throw the CB without putting that added stress onto the elbow. Being tethered to old school beliefs is not the point at all. The point was that kids want to see a pitch move and when they are young and their growth plates are still wide open, the damage that can be done to the elbow area while just trying to make the pitch "break" by throwing the pitch recklessly is irresponsible. So the video is in hopes of giving them the process to throw the pitch without unnecessary stress.

    @@TexasPitchingInstitute If the mechanics is what you're promoting, the secret is in the grip. Grip the ball with your fore and middle finger side-by-side resting on and just inside the horseshoe part of the lacing. The fingers should run parallel with the closed or bottom part of the lacing with the outside of your little finger facing the batter. Then mechanically, it's just like throwing a fastball with a pulling down motion at release point. The stronger the "pull" the sharper the teeth on the movement. The rotation of the ball will be a 12-to-6 downward spin causing the pitch to bite down and drop right off the table. Without the pull, the ball will break down naturally, but with the pull, and the stronger the pull, the more the bite and the nastier the movement. Experimenting with the velocity will affect "where" the movement or bite occurs. We were able to get late movement around 12-15 feet out in front of home plate. At that point in the pitch, the batter was already committed to and into his swing which didn't allow for late adjustments to barrel the ball so we got a lot of knee buckling and soft contact against it.

    @@TexasPitchingInstitute to his point, studies show it is overuse of the arm (for any type of pitch) that causes damage, not the CB. So why say kids need to wait to throw it? I've seen more kids hurt their elbow throwing fast balls at 12u because a 12u is growing and really shouldn't be throwing much of any type of pitch.

    Lelouch Vi. Britannia Ya I wouldn't really recommend it I'm pretty sure I ruined my shoulder and wrist and I'm only 16. It was because I was trying to throw pitches I didn't properly know how to and I would sometimes play center and could/would throw it from the fence to the pitcher or the catcher. Now if I raise my arm above my shoulderand bring it back down it just pops and sounds like it's bone on bone.

You may wish to compare House’s credentials to those of Dr. Marshall, though. As major league pitchers, pitching coaches, and educators it is no contest. Tell me specifically how you and Tom House are correct and Dr. Marshall is wrong. That should be easy for you.

    @@alsacrime4806 While reading one of House's books (The Pitching Edge) I came across something that blew me away, it said if thrown correctly, no one pitch puts any more strain on the arm than any other. Well that flew in the face of everything I've ever been taught by all my coaches I've ever had. Then, by a stroke of luck, a mutual acquaintance offered to introduce me to him. When I met him, I asked him about that passage in the book and he said it was true, and that it surprised him as well when he was initially told that by his biomechanist. Then, he invited me to an upcoming seminar he was planning at USC. In a break between sessions, he showed a 3D rendering of what happens to the arm, ligaments, etc. during a pitch and showed me the differences between pitches... there's virtually no difference. That caused me to rethink all that I had been taught, where did the "Don't teach kids to throw a breaking ball before age... " come from? I realized, it was a old wives tale handed down from one coach to another not based on any science or study behind it. Computers weren't around for my coaches so they didn't have that advantage, so where were they getting their data from... there wasn't any data, it was just one thing passed down from one person to another to another to another and so on. House has written about 18 books on pitching, he's generally recognized as America's foremost expert in the area. In fact, he's now branched out to teaching Tom Brady how to throw a football as well as others. Pro athletes are seeking him out to learn the mechanics so that they don't damage their arms. The 2 studies came to the same conclusion... that OVERUSE was the real culprit of injury which makes sense when you think about it. Now-a-days, parents are are paying for pitching coaches, their kids are playing in leagues and on travel ball teams, their forgoing year round spots to specialize in one sport only. The arms are not getting a chance to recover from all the microtears that occur when pitching. Kids used to play year-round sports, when baseball season ended they picked up a basketball or football and played that for a few months which gave the arm time to heal. Then when baseball season started again they'd pick up a baseball again. But that isn't happening today. Today, kids pitch in a league game Wednesday night up to their pitch count. Then, the following weekend pitch in a 2-day tournament again to the maximum pitch count. The issue is... the pitch count is supposed to be for the week. So by pitching in the tournament the following weekend, they're far exceeding the number of pitches they should be throwing to keep their arms in the safe zone. When the arm is fatigued, each pitch equates to 3-pitches thrown from a rested arm so it's easy to calculate the accumulated damage and how quickly damage can occur. 10-pitches when fatigued is equal to 30-pitches when properly rested and with pitch counts up around 70, that weekend tournament equates to about 210-pitches on a rested arm. Add in that kids are not taking breaks and are playing year-round and it's easy enough to figure out where the problem lies. Both those studies came to the same conclusions.
