The drop has been discussed before, but I am asking specifically about a drop ball that is deliberately thrown above the batter's belt buckle.
Has anyone ever heard of a pitcher with a true "High" drop ball as a pitch they throw?
What would the disadvantages/advantages be?
My dd throws a drop and when she tries to really spin it down, more with her arm or if she isn't getting over her front side, she will throw her drop pitch high and it has a little bite down, at the end. I feel it is hard of batters to hit. I think it might be a good pitch to work on throwing high, but I haven't heard much about doing that?
