I can throw a knuckleball.........[8D]
Never been able to throw one, i tried and tried and tried, could never get it down. Thats ok though, i'll stick with my Slider, Curve(doesn't really curve, it sinks) circle change, 2 and 4 seamers, and my little screwball. Does your 2 seamer move? My 2 seamer breaks right to left naturally. I'm glad i have someone to talk baseball with
No, neither one of my fastballs move. I throw my 2-seamer so straight over-handed that it doesn't have any way to break. It is my speed pitch. There is something about a 2-seam fastball that is thrown straight overhand that intimidates most batters I throw against. It is a wicked looking pitch coming straight down the pipe.
All in all, I throw 3 different fastballs, a curve and a knuckleball. I like having the knuckleball because I can't throw a changeup worth a crap.....
I used my 4-seamer hard and inside to intimidate the batters and get them to back away. Then i'd drop the 12-6 curve or the slider on them on the outside corner. i screwed my elbow up pretty bad so i don't throw nearly as fast or hard as i could as well as i only throw my breaking stuff every once in a while to see if i can still throw them
