Tips To Succeed Against The Great Curveball

By Sumit Bhatnagar and Parul Aggarwal

Following are some more tips and guidelines that will definitely help you to master the great curveball:

• Your approach should be to the opposite field when you are facing the same side pitcher. In this way, you can keep your front side in that is extremely important to succeed with this pitch.

• In case the ball hangs inside, never guide the ball to the opposite field. Just get your bat’s head out and pull it.

• A hanging curveball is, no doubt, the easiest pitch to hit but if you do not tackle it in the right way, you can land into a lot of trouble.

• Looking for the fastball and still hitting the curveball is easy but looking for a curveball and hitting a fastball will actually put you to test. It is almost impossible.

• Also, if the curveball starts up and out of the strike zone, it will break down into the strike zone. So, it is highly recommended that you should never wait for the curveball to come down to you.

• Always, try to keep your body down. You can never be a successful off-speed hitter if the ball breaks down when you go to hit it.

• ‘Hesitation’ is yet another key to hitting the curveball. That is, a little bit of hesitation is needed after your stride foot comes down.

• Make sure that your hands and majority of your weight should be kept at your back.

To conclude, there is no shortcut to success. You need to practice regularly and do your homework sincerely to conquer the great curveball.
