She played travel ball for the Sorcerers and I'll see some of their coaches this weekend, maybe they'll know.

I read where some one called Ricket's crop, cr^p. It is a rollover drop without the curve. She throws it cross corner with her palm down. A curve would be palm up...same with a rise with back spin. Curves and screws have 3-9 or 9-3 spin.How do the palm-up and palm-down curves differ in speed? In my mind, the former would be slower, but have heard otherwise. Does Ricketts use a palm-down release for her reported "crop?"
Speaking of the Sorcerers, I understand Phil is really sick.......
From looking at pictures and games on the Internet, Ricketts is palm up on the curve. She is palm down on the rollover at the end.
I don't get all that, but I never thought her curve dropped more than any other curve. I think that is all TV stuff. All pitches have to drop at some point. Her drop is straight, looks like to me,and that is a rollover. Why can't she have both?
