How do you throw a curve ball?

Question

A little league curve ball

Answer 1

Me? I throw a curveball poorly. Very poorly.

Answer 2

Had the slider 1 20 mins ago. OK a curve is easy. Take the ball and place 2 fingers so that your index finger is on the seam! Now you want 4 seams to bite so do this with the long part of the seam on the face of the ball! Now when throwing it your wrist will be cocked in (come over the top!) and as you release the ball snap your wrist straight down while flicking you thumb which is under the ball up and this is a curve! It should break north to south and once again by changing speeds you will get more or less break!

Answer 3

For a 12-6 curve, the first guy has it.

For a power curve, modify a 12-6 curve by moving your thumb up towards your index finger, and throw harder.

For a left to right curve, modify a slider by shifting your fingers (all that are touching the ball) diagonally.

Answer 4

What you have to do is hold the ball sideways with your index and middle finger on the laces and your thumb on the outside. Then, you flick your wrist and try to get a lot of spin on the ball. I am 12 and i encourage you not to throw it. It is effective, but it ruins your arm later in your life.
