This GIF demonstrates the ART OF PITCHING.
A master pitcher is a master of deception.
Out of a consistent motion, they will find ways to make the ball to vastly different things.
They will pull the string and make the ball dart, dodge, rise, dip, swerve, curve and otherwise evade the unsuspecting batter’s desperate swing.
The wider the range of results you can achieve from the same arm motion, the more unstoppable of a pitcher you will be.
Yu Darvish is from another world.
Let this GIF be testament of that.
