Answer 1

Introduction
No pitcher's arsenal is complete without a change-up. A change-up may resemble a fastball but slows down as it approaches the hitter, making a true fastball look faster than it really is.
Instructions
Difficulty: Easy
Three-Fingered Change-Up
Steps
1Step One Click to enlargeHold the ball against your palm with your index, middle and ring fingers spread across the seams at the widest point. These fingers are on top of the ball while the pinkie and thumb are placed underneath.
2Step Two Click to enlargeRest the ball on the palm of your hand and link the tips of the thumb and pinkie together.
3Step ThreeKeep your wrist stiff and exert equal pressure on the ball with all 5 fingers.
4Step Four Click to enlargeKeep the grip hidden in your glove. Try not to show any indication to the hitter which pitch he or she is about to see.
5Step Five Click to enlargeGo into your windup. Remember to pivot and shift your body weight from the back foot forward toward home plate.
6Step Six Click to enlargeAs you release the pitch, bring the ball straight down, as if you were scratching a blackboard. The ball should start out fast and hit the brakes as it drops down on the hitter.
7Step Seven Click to enlargeFollow through. Your feet should parallel each other at the end of the pitch, and the throwing arm should come across the front of your body.
Circle Change-Up
Steps
1Step OneGrip the ball the same way as explained for the three-fingered change-up, but join the index finger and thumb together in a circle on the side of the ball. The index finger's nail should be tucked within the lower joint of the thumb.
2Step TwoMake sure the pinkie is not touching the thumb and that the circle formation between the index finger and thumb is comfortable.
3Step ThreeWind up, pivot, release and follow through.
Tips & Warnings
Some pitchers push the ball out of the hand as if they're throwing a knuckleball. This creates little additional velocity on the change-up, however.
Throw the change-up down the middle of the plate and the ball should veer off when in flight. An effective change-up tails away from left-handed hitters.

Answer 2

I will explain the best I can though. One thing is important do the everything the exact same as your fastball the only thing you need to change is the grip. The grip is as follows: first grab the ball as if you were going to through a two seemed fast ball then with your index and thumb make a circle, and put those two fingers on the side of the ball and hold the ball far back into your hand. Everything else is exactly like a fast ball I promise if you do it right it will work .

Answer 3

hold it loose with two fingers usually middle finger and thumb and through it exactly the same as the fastball. the success of the pitch lies on how much you make it look like a fastball coming out of your hand

or use this

Answer 4

grip the ball in the back of your hand as far back as you can get it and throw it like a fastball.
