Pitches and Stuff

[Darnell's Son]

I'm sure some of you may remember Stupendous Man's series from early last year on the physics behind the different pitch types, but there was one that he did not get around to.

That changed today with the publication of the Slider.

Just in case you missed the other parts of the series, they're linked at the bottom of the article.

If you haven't read this entire series, carve out some time to do so. It's incredibly informative and fascinating. Stupendous Man does a great job of relating highly technical concepts to lay people like me and even includes some great visuals of his own making to make sure it's easy to follow along.

This is probably my favorite series the dot com has done.

I hadn't noticed this series before. The piece on the slider is really good.
I had recently been trying to find a good description of how the pitch works and this is the best I have seen. Love the gifs!
