Baseball’s most frequently used pitch is, and will probably be for a long time, the fastball. A good four-seamer will give the hitter less time to react, and if it is well-placed and it has some sort of movement, it could be a deadly weapon. However, a pitcher can’t get by with just fastballs, unless his name is Mariano Rivera.
Breaking balls and changeups are equally necessary for a pitcher to have some sort of success in the major leagues. MLB.com reviewed some of the league’s best changeups, and as it turns out, the New York Yankees are represented in the list.
