ViewDo: How To Throw a Splitfinger Fastball

well a forkball is harder to throw than a splitty...a split finger is thrown with alot of spin on it where as a forkball is supposed to have little to no spin.. Forkballs are essentially a fast knuckleball and because of the speed it has ,like dooz said, a level trajectory then suddenly drops off the table..
The grip for a forkball is buried deeper between the two fingers than a splitfinger usually.

3lement. A forkball is just another name for a Splitfinger fastball/splitter...as you can see there are many variations on the name of this pitch but yes, your forkball is essentially a splitfinger fastball that is actually, if thrown better than the guy in the video, should come in perfectly level then drop off the table. NO ARCH!!! take this advice from a splitfinger fastball pitcher himself =)

Someone please tell me the difference between a Forkball and a splitfinger fastball please. I want to figure this out. I've always used it as a forkball -(usually after a fast pitch, sort of like a straight down breaking pitch, to get the swinger to chase or get used to the speed of it before I through another fastball) -

So what i'm wondering is, this whole time was I really just throwing a slow splitfinger fastball?

fork

this guy is cool, and the slow mo is nice, much better than the old guy and the stuttering guy

your release is kinda early

why dont they pitch on the mount?
the ball doesnt look the same coming from the same groung level.
I belive you will have a better look on "how it breaks", "slides" when you throw down hill, from the pitching mount.

go ahead and make your video and show how it's "really" done there Whitey Ford

... is just a "comment" dude, dont take too personaly, whitey ford.
