| Was hoping a few of you baseball nuts could help me out. I was talking to an american student about baseball & cricket, and came to the conclusion that the reason I like cricket is probably the same reason why I should like baseball. In cricket, a lot of the art & appeal in bowling is subtle variations in the type of ball delivered. A wrist spinner may have 10+ different types of deliveries - one may spin away from the batsmen, one into, one straight on. One may skid, and so on. Many of them look like they're being bowled the same way too, in action. I know in baseball this rings true for pitchers too - I've heard of curveballs and flyballs and balls that drop quickly. But I don't know what they do. Could someone give a quick rundown of classical pitching deliveries, roughly how they're bowled and what they do in the air? If anyone wants, I can runt throw the same thing with cricket bowlers too. Ta, Tris |
