The Splitter and The Knuckleball
The splitter is a very tough pitch to throw but if you do get it down, it is hard
to hit. You have to have long fingers to grip it properly.
You take your index and middle fingers and you split hem on the ball. Then
you throw it staight down. You will know if you are throing it right if it looks like it is going straight and then it "drops
off the table".
The knuckleball is by far the hardest pitch to throw in baseball. There
are very few major leaguers who do throw it and the ones that do throw it abut 60 times a game.
