Change up

Hillhouse said:

This is exactly how I throw mine in games. The more flip, the more speed reduced. The more turn over, the faster it'll go but it stays lower. The trick is the find the balance.

Several years ago a guy tried to make a video acting as if he invented this pitch calling it the triple pitch or something, he sent me a copy asking me to endorse it. I explained to him that he didn't invent anything new here, I'd been doing that all along. His video had some of the most ridiculous content I'd ever heard.

It's a tough change to master but when she gets it, it's great. And almost impossible to pick, just hold it like any other pitch since the flip and turn do the work.

does anyone have any close up video of Lisa Fernandez and her change up? I saw it a couple years ago on video have been trying to figure it out ever since.

I see Fernandez’s as a backhand change. Think about getting the thumb behind the ball immediately at release. Google “John Gay rec center” for another demo of this pitch.

I may be getting a little away from the OP's question but does anyone have any close up video of Lisa Fernandez and her change up? I saw it a couple years ago on video have been trying to figure it out ever since but can't get close enough (or clear enough) video. It is NASTY nonetheless!

Take a look at roughly 37 secs in.

Kleist change, looks like she gets her hand turned early, pushing the ball
