How to Throw Baseball Pitches : How to Throw a Forkball Pitch

Fail just epic fail

A stiff-wrist forkball has very little spin and it will drop AND break sideways when thrown properly. A stiff-wrist forkball is just as effective as a knuckle ball (and just as hard to master!), but the stiff-wrist forkball is easier for a catcher to handle. The beauty of the stiff-wrist forkball is that it may break like a curve, or it can break like a screwball-and it breaks very late.

[monza12vair]

This type of forkball is thrown in the high 70's as a changeup. It can be an effective pitch, but I think the circle change is a better option for most pitchers because it is easier on the elbow.

The stiff-wrist forkball is a much slower pitch (mid 60's), and it won't cause arm damage if thrown properly. The down side is that it is a very difficult pitch to control.

@monza12vair lol dude..my fingers handleing is 90! and my fork dropping like hell dude!

[TheNatural015]

if i was batting against this guy i would crush the ball off him.

[19goalkeeper]

now i don't get it, whats the difference between this and a splitter?

[dalionsfan101]

@19goalkeeper he didnt teach it right the splitter is gripped more on the seams between your fingers and it just drops at the plate but is faster a forkball is gripped with your two fingers deeply into the ball and at release point which you throw higher you snap your wrist making the forkball have little or no rotation and is like a breaking ball

[Brotherclips]

@19goalkeeper a splitter will be slower

[dooberss13]

i just want everyone to kno that you might pitch faster than him, but if you notice when he demonstrates the pitch on every vid it looks the same and ends up in the same spot. i mean dont get me wrong he makes great vids and helps you out. but stop sayin you pitch faster than him.

@dooberss13

I see what u saying is like every pitch he throws it ends up in the same spot. So if u trying to impress somebody, you can't because it looks the same

[rockies17]

i know

[MeSmashThings14]

hes gripping it wrong, if he gripped it with his fingers split on the 2-seams like | | , it would have WAY more drop, thats how i throw it

[ultimaterocker1]

how hard are you supposed to throw it? throw fast like a slider or slower like a curve?

[mattador2792]
