I thought this was interesting. Having spent most of my life playing baseball, and then having to adjust to a slow pitch, arching softball game, it can be difficult on many hitters to make the adjustment. I also coached some traveling teams for girls fastpitch softball, and I've seen them struggle trying to adjust to hitting a slow, arching pitch. Would be great to see a MLB pitcher learn to throw this pitch periodically, as I think most hitters would really struggle with it.

I saw that. Don't know how well it'd work.

Rick Mahler used to throw a slow curve that couldn't have been over 50 mph.
