my dad told me one sign for my pitches, a changeup. Otherwise just fastballs. I was 9 years old and never got the changeup sign the entire season. He gives it to me once and the guy bombs it 215 dead center for a homer lmao.

@MrDistillation 2 жыл бұрын

Lol that's funny. Part of the reason we don't teach the little ones different pitches, is understanding when to use it. It can be hard enough for them to learn proper mechanics and locating their fastball. Once you get that, then you have to learn to use off speed to take a hitter off balance.... and not putting it right down the middle.

Been fooling around with a different type of changeup. I hold it just like it were a knuckleball, but at release, I flick the fingers that are behind the ball. Done right, this causes a lot of front spin which causes the ball to dive. Changing the way it's held on the seams can cause it to break sideways as well.

@ryanhayes8748 2 жыл бұрын

The key to a change up (or most any pitch) is the pronating of the wrist as you release. Ball must come off of the ring finger and create sideways spin so that it Can dive to your throwing arms side as it reaches the plate.

@fishflyinggames6676 9 ай бұрын

That’s the key. I like to feel it come off the pinky side of my ring finger/hand/palm. It also feels like my knuckles face the catchers mitt, similar but to how they do on a curve ball but also opposite, lol. I don’t know if that stuff exactly happens but that’s what it feels like. Pronating at the right time is key to getting that extra RPM’s to create movement.

@lorimeyers3839 2 жыл бұрын

I wasn’t the biggest kid during my mid and late teenage years, 5’9”, 175, topped out around 84, but I threw my change up exactly the same way but focused more on the pinky as the brakes. Threw it straight over the top, same release point as my four seam. No pronation, and as you said, your middle fingers sort of stabilizes the ball as you get more comfortable with it. What made it unhittable was the fact that my arm speed along with the spin and action was the same as my four seam, but 8-10 mph slower. There’s really no way to teach a batter to hit a change up, by the way. As a righty, I surprisingly got my most swings and misses vs. right handed hitters. Maybe because I could more easily locate it, who knows. I actually emulated Ryan Madson’s grip and release point as far back as 2004, when he showed the way he gripped the pitch on a Sunday Night Baseball broadcast with Joe Morgan. And by the way, that story all your coaches tell you about throwing curveballs?….they’re all true. Lol. 33 years old and my arm is wrecked. Hahaha

Really wish I had better coaches growing (zero shade to them, I quit baseball before it would have mattered) but I always had a cannon and played 3rd as a kid bc no one else could throw from 3rd to 1st, then left field bc no one could throw over a cut man and actually make a play at 2nd/3rd or home, then catcher bc I could throw the hardest/most accurate to second on a steal. I pitched occasionally but had no control, looking back I throw a “palm ball” that was really a changeup 95% of the time bc no one ever explained the seams or how they work to throw pitches, I always thought to throw a curve u had to turn over your arm like crazy, same with a cutter/splitter etc. don’t know I would’ve stayed with the sport through college like I did football, but shoot I would’ve played longer bc that would have been SO much fun to actually learn.

Master your 4 Seam Fastball 1st. Ride that pitch till the majors. The later you begin throwing breaking balls, the longer your Tommy John tendon will cooperate. Advice given to me from Pedro Martinez in the DR winter ball.

@Mockturtlesoup1 Жыл бұрын

I agree learning this pitch is a good idea to get used to it and seeing what it does, but I think the vast majority of "kids"(not sure which age group we're talking about) don't need a change up, either because there's not enough velocity on their fastball(or more precisely, not enough difference between the fastball and change), or because they can just throw some type of curve/breaking ball for their off speed pitches(not that changeups can't/don't move, especially the older/better you get, but serving up change-ups in Little League is like throwing batting practice.) That being said, when I played freshman and JV(I got fucked up on drugs by late sophomore year and never played again), there was one pitcher who could throw mid seventies, _maybe_ low 80s. He was the only pitcher I ever even asked to throw change-ups, but he'd shake me off every time. I mean granted, he had 3 or 4 different breaking balls at somewhat different speeds, but still. And worst of all(I shit you not), he would _only_ throw outside(meaning over the far part of the plate, or just passed it to get guys swinging.) I don't know if he was afraid of hitting someone or what, but let me tell you, as a catcher, that is extremely frustrating, especially since he was a pretty good pitcher. So I basically had only two calls. Fastball outside, or curve outside(and then he has the nerve to tell me I making my calls too obvious when the other team would be getting hits. Which, granted, was probably somewhat true as I was only 14/15 years old, but kids that age aren't really thinking about that very much, or waiting on a particular pitch. One game when he said that I told him to just throw whatever he wanted from now on, and I'd catch it. He's like, "how are you gonna catch it if you don't know what I'm throwing?" I'm like, "bitch? Who the hell do you think you are? Pedro Martinez?"(it was a long time ago. Lol.) "I can catch far easier than I can hit 'em, and I can hit just fine." Which was true, as if I swung at a pitch, I rarely missed, and almost never struck out.)

Grip the 4 seam with the pinkie and ring finger and watch how nasty it is. As a catcher, if I threw BP, it was nothing but flat 4 seam fastballs until I mixed in a change up with that grip. Would make the batters look pretty silly. Delivery was exactly the same. Speed dropped about 10 mph.

Going from out on the fingers to in is a great technique. However, things have changed with Seam Shifted Wake pitches. Should not be chasing magnus effect movement on changeups. Move the baseball around until you get the open horseshoe rotating on the upper left (backside of the baseball) for righties. The wake of airflow across the back of the ball will make a change move more violently (and later) than magnus (spin) - for everyone not named Devon Williams.

And drag your foot instead of pushing off. Keep the same arm speed. This combined with shoving the ball deeper into your palm will take off about 13 mph from your fastball.
