How to Throw A Gyroball

The gyroball is a relatively new pitch developed by a computer scientist and baseball instructor. It has the appearance of a slider, but in reality has no movement at all.

Difficulty: Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Baseball
• Catcher

1. Grip the ball as you would grip a fastball.

2. Go into your windup.

3. When it comes time to release the ball, turn your wrist outward so that the ball has a spiral spin on it, like a football.

4. Follow through.

Tips & Warnings

• If you have trouble, try mimicking a football throw.
• If you don't mix in the slider with your gyroball, your gyro will get hit hard.
