Knuckle Ball can be a very dangerous pitch to handle It can sail ether way you dont know where its gonna go.Putting 100 MPH Knucle ball you better get outta the way if it goes toward you head or anywhere else.I seen Knuckle ball Goes way over the catchers head without expecting it.If you gonna fool with 100MPH pitch do it with a fastball and aim it above your belt if you can catch up to it.

I would have it rotate from 60 mph fastball, 40 mph change-up, and 50 mph curveball. You are all thinking that is slow, but I am in 11-12 year old little league where that is basically what you have to hit.

Good luck with those rockshu.Only Major league hitters can manage to hit those.Hitting a baseball is not as easy as you think it is.I learned it from Dodgers hitting coach John (T-Bone) Shelby He says hitting a baseball correctly takes a lot of pratice.Its not as easy you think it is.

yeah. not only do you have to determine whether its a strike or ball but you gotta know when to hit it.

Not true. Not even close to being true. Saying that only Major League players can hit 90 MPH fastballs, etc. is such a blankey statement. How do you explain Minor Leaguers hitting it? Even then, a lot of College and High School players throw 90, and throw a slider and curve. The reason players are in the Major Leagues is what the players do with the ball. That's what seperates MLB players from the rest.
