Grip the ball with your index and middle fingers along the seam
Place your thumb underneath the ball for support
Keep your wrist firm and relaxed
Bring your arm through with a smooth overhand motion
At release, snap your wrist downward and slightly inward
Apply pressure with your middle finger as the ball leaves your hand
Release the ball slightly earlier than a fastball
Follow through naturally toward your target
Practice consistent arm speed to disguise the pitch
Start with short-distance throws before increasing distance
