This thread is scintillating. I plan to jump in with a definitive exposition on the topic just as soon as I get a chance.

If I'm going to talk about rising balls, it's not going to be with you.

I could take "Chin Music" all sorts of directions from here, but, in the interest of decorum, I think I'll let that one go.

Perhaps you've spotted him at the top of his game at the YMCA??

I find it surprising that you focused on "Chin Music" when Men's Fastpitch is the obvious
word grouping in need of a punch line. :twisted:

forgive my poor diagram , but am i to believe that a riseball moves foward than up


pitcher _____________________------ catcher

not sure but wouldn't this go against the laws of gravity? not that i would no what those laws are.
i believe i remember an interview with jennie finch and she referred to pitch as "appearing to rise up"
