3 SLV, 4 PALM, 7 SHU, 7 ORIG, 2 SNK

The original pitch is a sinker with rise. I call it the Un-Sinker. Obviously it doesn't actually rise as that would defy physics but it goes more diagonal-horizontally as opposed to diagonal-vertically.

I am going to add a H-SLD during spring training. Therefore the SLV will not be as important, so I want to add another curveball type pitch. Do I add a DCB, a SCB, or a KNCB?

I would say either DCB or SCB. both are effective at striking out batters. I might suggest DCB over SCB because it contrasts with the SLV better. Whichever one is cheaper, just use that one. However, in my opinion, you don't really need to add a curveball at all.

I have already bought SCB DCB, and KNCB. I just wanted to know which to practice. I have KN CB on another pitcher, it is amazing, but only as a 7. I am leaning towards SCB because of his TOP SPEEd,

yeah, SCB is fine too. Just don't use KNCB, because it's almost like a second SLV.

By the way you might want to put a poll up.

How long does it take to learn the pitch? I did it both times is spring training but I didn't learn anything. Should I S/L?

I don't know. I've never learned a pitch before. But I'm pretty sure you should S/L.

Honestly, after 1 practice, you should have the pitch in your repertoire.

I tried it both practices in ST and I tried twice. Maybe I need to wait until after the exhibition games?

I got the hard slider. I tried for the slow curve but apparently in Life mode you cannot learn a second pitch at the same direction.

Uh, yeah, you can. My guy had a Palmball and i was able to make him learn a Splitter. It's possible.

Well I already started the season so I will have to wait until next year.

oh , man.
