last pitch of the at bat to Iosefa in the fourth inning (she is the second out). They show what they call a curve in slo mo and you can see the spin.

Strikeout pitch to Katie Brown in the third for the second out- they show a RB in slo mo.

I'll get it tomorrow.

safe in an undisclosed location
Check out how she moves her thumb out of the way on the second pitch. On the upswing it has a little more thumb on it but at release she has moved it over a little to get it out of the equation ALA Wilkenson. Also, you can't see it here but on the TV broadcast, her spin is really tight, but the RB spin is really mostly bullet, just a little backspin in it. Not being critical, it is obviously a hell of a pitch because Georgia could not lay off of it and they knew it was coming. Just more of a real world data point for how good a riseball can be with a less than perfect spin axis.
