0 Comments

 
A Baseball Mogul fan asked today for a list of all available pitch types in Baseball Mogul. They are listed in the help files, but I'm posting it again here for folks who don't always have access to their Baseball Mogul computer. They are listed in order from the easiest pitch to control (fastball) to the most difficult (knuckleball).

  • Fastball (aka “Four-Seamer” or “Rising Fastball”)
  • Sinking Fastball (aka “Sinker” or “Two-Seamer”)
  • Running Fastball (aka “Boring Fastball”)
  • Cut Fastball (aka “Cutter”)
  • Straight Change (aka “Changeup”)
  • Circle Change
  • Hard Slider (often confused with a “Cut Fastball”)
  • Slider (aka “Nickel Curve”)
  • Fosh Change
  • Slow Changeup (aka “Slow Ball”)
  • In-Shoot (early 20th century forebearer of the Running Fastball)
  • Out-Shoot (early 20th century forebearer of the Cut Fastball and Slider)
  • Split-Fingered Fastball (aka “Splitter”)
  • Gyroball (invented in Japan c. 2000-2005)
  • Forkball
  • Palmball (aka “Slip Pitch”)
  • Fadeaway (early 20 th c. pitch – cf. Screwball)
  • Slurve (aka “Slider/Curve”)
  • Drop Ball (early 20th century pitch comparable to the Overhand Curve)
  • Hard Curve (aka “Sharp Curve”)
  • Overhand Curve (aka “12-6 Curve”, “Drop Curve”)
  • Screwball (aka “Reverse Curve”)
  • Roundhouse (aka “Sidearm Curve”)
  • Knuckle Curve
  • Riser (aka “Frisbee Slider” – only thrown by underhand pitchers)
  • Slow Curve (aka “Big Curve”)
  • Scuffball (illegal in modern-day baseball)
  • Spitball (illegal in modern-day baseball)
  • Eephus (aka “Blooper”)
  • Knuckleball
