Ineffective curveballs

Re: Ineffective curveballs

With left handed pitchers, I almost never throw a curve vs a RH hitter. Either I'm no good at it, or its just too hard to do, but it results in a lot of homers given up. However, its an extremely effective pitch for me lefty on lefty, on either side of the plate. Sometimes, I'll even try and sneak one in early in the count to get a free strike.

I like a good Sweeping Curve for a lefty pitcher vs a right-hand hitter (and vice versa) but I'd be less likely inclined to toss a 12-6 up there with that type match-up. for me to throw one, the pitcher would need to be pretty good and the hitter pretty ugly lol
