I'll compile them and turn them into articles in the Pitching Articles section. How do you throw your pitches?

| Spencer, do you get any sink on your fastball? I'm wondering cause your fingers don't touch the seams. |

| Man !! To this day I am jealous of guys that can shove the ball between their fingers so easily . I spent so many nights in my dorm trying to increase the flex in my fingers ... all i got was sore fingers . What a great advantage ... any of you out there who can do this naturally should definitely explore the splitter !! |
