    I am not sure if change up is that hard to throw. You find a grip that you can throw accurately with and throw it the same way you do a fastball and it should come out of the hand a few MPH slower to mess with the batter's timing.

    If you're going to count the Slurve, basically a curve changeup, as its own pitch, then you should count 2 seam (sinker), 4 seam, and cutters as their own pitches. The splitter is just the 80's variation of the historic forkball and should be combined. It's sad that the top 3 hardest pitches to throw are all pretty much extinct in today's game

    This is a great video! Thank you for putting it together. I still don’t understand the pitches though because of the camera angles. Seems like directly behind 2nd would be better for the fans instead of an angle like this. Of course, I know there’s nothing you can do about that. Is there a video anywhere of a person showing how to hold the ball for each pitch, explaining what the ball will do, and then pitching it? Maybe with a camera behind the pitcher so we can see the ball activity?

It's weird I feel like all of a sudden there has been a curse put on whoever wins the cy young for the Sox first Pom won it barely then sucked the year Sale won it now Sale sucks. Though none of them are even decent this year We've had what five or so dominant performances? Most end up with a choke from them, reliever or closer I think there has been at most two three great one that ended up in wins, we easily could be at least tied with the Yanks and if a certain guy who wants a Payday would be playing like he wants it we'd easily have won 15 or more games.

    a changeup is NOT just putting an extra finger on the ball and taking a little bit off the pitch!!! There are several different grips that are used ie a "Circle Changeup" google the grip, and the arm velocity and angle stays exactly the same as throwing a fastball. Guys on the MLB level would water at the mouth if a guy only slowed his arm speed down and used 3 fingers on the ball. its way to obvious for a professional. It may work in Little League but wont work at very much of a higher level than that.

    Change is the easiest, just pick your method - circle change (make OK with thumb and index and hold ball with last three fingers), a palm or choke ball (put ball further into your hand and away from finger tips) or forkball (like a splitter but wider assuming your hand is big or supple enough). Throw all three as hard as you can.

    I would add the very rare classic eephus or "blooper" pitch with the steep height and eephus like pitches which are basically any breaking ball thrown at unusually slow speeds. Also, a type of changeup known as a "palm" ball is quite difficult to master. Any baseball history buff remembers the towering homer Ted Williams hit off of the originator of the eephus pitch, Rip Sewell in the 1946 All Star Game. A even more famous eephus pitch disaster happened in the 1975 World Series when Tony Perez for the Reds clobbered a HR off Bill "Spaceman" Lee of the Red Sox who was waiting for the pitch. That being said, these odd pitches can be very effective against many hitters when thrown at the right time but requires a lot of skill.

    Changeup - a true changeup - should be way higher on the list. Curve/slurve/slider are just variations on a theme - same pitch.

    Not at all. A slurve is pretty much just a bad slider. But a curve and a slider are completely different pitches. You throw a curve different than any other pitch, snapping your wrist down to make it spin forward instead of backward. A slider is thrown more like a fastball, but with your fingers outside the ball and with a twist of the wrist to make it spin sideways.

    Joe Blow lol I’ll assume you mean fastball when you say normal pitch. The 2 and 4-seams as well as the cutter and splitter each have different grips but are all thrown the same way. The change up has its own grip as well (a few of them) and the key to a good change up is to be able to throw it with the same arm angle and arm velocity as a fastball but then having the pitch basically fall of at the end of it. A good change up is a hard pitch to throw.

    Call me out if I am way off base on this, but there is actually difference between a Split-Fingered Fastball & a Forkball. Though people use the terms interchangeably, they are not the same pitch. They are related, but slightly different. The grips & pressure points are slightly different. True, the actions have a same break. But because of their differences, the break on a Split-Fingered Fastball is more extreme, and thus can be more effective. But a key requirement of being able to throw a good Split-Fingered fastball is you have to have large hands for the grip required on that. If you don't have large hands, smaller hands, you are better off developing a consistent Forkball. The last pitcher I remember with a great Forkball was Hideo Nomo.

    You shouldn’t be throwing a curveball. You’re 12. It also doesn’t matter how fast a curve is, it’s about how much it breaks. Just because a pitcher throws a fast curveball high in the zone doesn’t mean the batter doesn’t crush it. It’s about how you can make it move low in the zone north to south
