Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Sink+
A fastball with sink has low backspin and drops through the strike zone. When thrown down in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher ground ball percentage and lower launch angle. Sink+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average
Curveball
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Curveball
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.

Starts batting stance with feet slightly outside shoulders. Low leg lift with sound coil into back hip. Balanced stride angles bat towards catcher upon landing. Compact swing, keeps bat level and on plane. Drives back leg towards the pitcher, high one-handed finish. Behind the plate, receives with left foot in front of right in athletic position. Brings right knee closer to the ground to gear up for throw. Keeps throwing hand close to glove before a chest-high transfer. Uses legs to throw with intent from a compact and quick release. Balanced finish after throw down.
