Do what the last poster said, and if you can, get some spit or grease on your middle and index fingers. Cheating? Not if you don't get caught, and you -can- go to your mouth off the hill in pro ball. The object is to make the ball slip out of your hand with as little spin as possible; backspin on a fastball keeps it from dropping, and the dead spin on a forkball causes a drop. Spit and grease are great for this :) Actually, the best split finger would be a pitch with no spin- a 90 mph knuckleball... :)How do I throw a ';split finger'; fast ball?
hold the ball with the seams horizontal, and split your index and middle fingers along the distance of the seams. Throw the same as a regualr fastball.
