At the end of my daughters' pitching lesson with Rick Pauly, it was mentioned by her dad that she also throws a knuckle ball. My daughters face lit up and she got excited to show Mr Pauly her grip that she has been playing around with. It was something that SHE figured out on her own. After having a long lesson, her energy is renewed and she wants to pitch more. Come to find out, she can use the knuckle ball grip for her changeup, drop ball and her rise ball. Not only can she use it, she pitches faster with control using this grip.
I wonder if it has something to do with this thing she always does with that finger when she pitch. I have tons of pictures where she does the same thing.
