Common Pitching Options in Baseball

Description:

Although there is more than one type of official pitching style in major league baseball, people who aren't as familiar with baseball and pitching velocity as are longtime fans might be surprised to know that there are actually many types of fastballs out there. The fastball style of pitch is the most common type of pitch in baseball, but it's not relegated to just a single type of throw. There are different mechanics at work for each type of fast pitch and variations include such pitches as the split-finger fastball, the forkball and the cut fastball.
