So Im sure most have heard a similar story.... At a game umpire calls ball (high), dad yells "that was a riseball". Start conversation with a friend about riseball (this is 14U game). He claims, yeah that pitcher throws a rise. I ask how do you know--she told me! I watch spin and only see bullet. But ball does "rise". I think of Java referring to such a thing a RAMP ball. Which prompts me to say I think she is throwing an upward trajectory and explain spin. He says, "Yeah goes up from the batters POV"
So I understand spin/magnus/physics etc, but what BEHAVIORAL differences does a true riseball display that is so deadly to hitters that the rampball doesnt.
And if this seems elementary to some, I get that, but would like to understand better.
