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

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Everybody who’s saying change-ups are easier to throw than curveballs/sliders have clearly never pitched. At least not at a high level. People need to understand that a change-up is not simply a “slower fastball” it’s gripped very differently and to be effective has to be the same arm action as the fastball to fool the hitter into swinging too early. Simply lobbing the ball up there and calling it a change-up is a good way of getting pulled in the second inning.

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
The slurve is it's own pitch the fastballs are not
as slurve is not a curve and change up. it’s a curve and sinker. it’s in the name da
A slurve is a curve thrown like a slider I literally throw one
@@awesomeblake2276 yes
The last few are all fastballs though, the mechanics don't change all that much the grip does
Eijun sawamuras "numbers" 😃😃
The darvish curve balls were actually his slider
Jacob Geist No those are 12-6 curves
Ryan H no his curve is around 70
Cristiaan Aguilar he throws 2 curves and 2 sliders, he throws his slow curve around 70, and a faster curve around 80. With the slider he throws 1 at 84 or 85, and one at 87-88. With both he throws the slower in 1-1 or 0-0 counts, and the faster one for strike outs.
Ryan H your right, I forget that he throws the two different curve balls
Jacob Geist Now that I look closer at how he throws them I'm pretty sure his first one is a slider, and his second one is his 12-6 curve.
Huge difference between a 2 seam and a splitter.
I think he's basically grouping them because your wrist typically has the same motion in all those pitches just different finger placement. But I agree with you
I was thinking the same thing. And a splitter and a forkball are pretty much the same thing.
@@michaelfadian splitter falls more dramatically but forkball has a less sudden shift.They are different

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?

I used to throw a sidearm screwball. Much easier pronating your forearm from sidearm IMO. I used to throw a forkball too but I don't understand how the ones displayed had no spin.
Bruh, Chris Sale was dotting the corner at 99, and 100.5 at Fenway in the 7th. He's incredible.
Yeah and it took him a month to get back up to that this year, he dipped so much then exploded back to form only to lose the game again. 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.
Until August lol
IMO, it is much easier to throw a mediocre changeup than to throw a mediocre curveball. Now a good changeup, on the other hand, is much harder to throw, so I guess if youre ranking by hardest to throw well its correct, but any joe schmo can put 3 fingers on the ball and take a little off
xP0WERH0USEx yeah that’s what I was shooting for. Even then you teach a guy to pull his arm down with the curve he can make it bend.
xP0WERH0USEx so true
True, I throw more of a 12-6 curve, and tbh I find the curve much easier to locate than my trophy change.
Aka me
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.
1:00 Jose Fernandez awww
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.
Love the pitches, just feel bad for the catchers trying to grab that stuff!!LOL
I cant throw a change up to save my life
Corben_ Peach feels bad man
Same I work off two fastballs and a curve
Took me 3 years to figure it out. Feels bad.
Corben_ Peach I’ve got a 4 seam, a sinker, a slider and a 12-6. I’ve never really needed a change up since my sinker works like one with it being about 9mph slower. But it’s always been annoying that I can’t throw a change to save my life.
Big hands is the key my dude
i just learned how to throw a cutter yesterday, and that has a lot of movement so i use for when i have a lead in the count. I throw four seam, two seam, and cutter. Working on knuckle
Damn I wish Chapman played for STL haha. That dude brings the heat. Also, Chris sale's slider is a a thing of beauty I must say
Great forkball there. Imagine if Steve Carlton or Nolan Ryan would have had a knuckleball. They would have had 50 no hitters.
0:17 look at Chapmans psycho Eyes bout to throw 100+
That curve from Vrlander against the Yankees still cracks me up to this day. Dude straight chopped at the ball like a sword lmao
And Josh Donaldson just did the same thing lol
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.
2:00 tf how do you even hit that
cover drive lol
Maybe its different for you but for me it is 1:56

Actually developing a good cutter in incredibly difficult. When thrown improperly it can become a really bad slider.
Awesome video bro! 👍👍👍
the one seam sinker was taught to me by a friend and we treated it like the ultimate teqnique
I saw this title and I said, “Knuckleball.”
When I'm batting, changeups are the ones I find difficult to hit the most. They just give you false hopes man.
I think the splitter is harder to learn than a fastball. I know they are both considered fastballs but the splitter is a lot harder to hold and throw for strikes/chasing pitches. It’s really easy to hang.
I seem to struggle with a change up and so do many other highschool players. Most of my friends just don’t throw it
If a cutter is an easy pitch why is mariano the only one to perfect it
Eli Pascual ever hear of kenley Jansen? David Robertson? David price? Justin Verlander? Those are all pitching right now. How is Mariano the only one to perfect it?
Baseball Worldwide because he only threw the cutter for 20 years and everyone knew what pitch was coming and they still couldn’t hit it. The others mix in 4 seem fastballs along with their other offspeeds
Doesn’t mean it is a hard pitch to throw... Really dude?
It is a very hard pitch to throw and it is very hard on your arm. Cutters puts tremendous stress on the ulnar collateral ligament and so it has ended a lot of pitchers' careers due to needing of TJS
The pitch itself is easy to throw, as it's just a fastball with a modified grip. Mo was just better at throwing it.
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.
Everything is a fastball just how it spins if ur thinking that way lol
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.
As a cricket bowler this was fun to watch
0:52, was that a balk?

Im late, ik. Not neccesarily a balk. If he does that every single time, its no balk. If he changes it during that game, for example he does it only once, it IS a balk.

Idk if this guy has ever played baseball the changup is the second thing you learn and is very simple

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.
I have the feels for Fernandez 😓
Zachary C I wouldn’t dwell on it too much. It was his choice

This is good reference material for Sawamura Eijun 😌
Good video. I would have shown Jamie Moyer throwing the change up. He reportedly had a couple different versions of it even. The best slider I ever saw came out of the hands of Steve Carlton.
I think the screwball is harder to throw.
Agreed. They (Santiago because he's the only mlb pitcher who throws one) have to twist their arm inwards...
I think many could pitchers could throw it if they wanted to but not many pitchers would dare to throw it regularly due to the damage it does to your arm. Kinda like the splitter
I came here after watching ace no daiya wondering what's sawamura pitches look like in real life 😂😂😂😂
Everybody who’s saying change-ups are easier to throw than curveballs/sliders have clearly never pitched. At least not at a high level. People need to understand that a change-up is not simply a “slower fastball” it’s gripped very differently and to be effective has to be the same arm action as the fastball to fool the hitter into swinging too early. Simply lobbing the ball up there and calling it a change-up is a good way of getting pulled in the second inning.
Dat Boi This ^^^^^^^
Throwing a true 12-6 curve is still harder tho. Especially if u pronate to help ur change
