They also have been throwing a non-existent pitch....the screwball.
If you understood what kind of spin a screwball requires you wouldn't trust what the announcers are saying. They have also been calling a lot of outside pitches curves, but curve spin is not present. And they are calling those bullet spin pitches riseballs.

Sounds like easy money.....

But since I'm sure you aren't really interested in any sort of "discussion" and won't bother to click the link:

Yeah that's a semantics deal. They want to define a screwball by it's spin, not it's movement. I have seen and caught balls that do move inside to a RHB thrown by a RHP. If you define that pitch by it's spin, it's not a screwball. If you define it by it's movement, it's a screwball.

Lol..if the advice is so bad why are you still here...other than my comedic relief of course...
Lots of great advice given here on a daily basis. Lots of it. Just because a few small pieces of advice may fall short for some folks, doesn't mean they throw the baby out with the bath water. Still plenty of good advice to be gleaned.
