Reply to "Over the Top vs Side Arm"

Nobody is denying that. No question they are the minority. It's not like side armers are going to take over. The point is that the guys they are converting were not effective against their competition doing what they are doing. They made a change so that they could get on the field. Regarding late break, what would you call Kevin Brown's sinker. He had a fairly low 3/4 slot and was absolutely filthy with his late run and sink. Definitely a two-plane pitch

A good over the top guy has a better leverage point and gets on top of the ball better getting better late break on the ball.
