A change-up pitch is a type of Baseball pitch that is designed to deceive the batter by slowing down the pitch speed while maintaining a similar arm motion to a fastball. Typically thrown 8-15 mph slower than a pitcher's fastball, the change-up can disrupt a batter's timing and lead to weak contact or swings and misses. It is an effective tool for pitchers, especially when used strategically in conjunction with faster pitches. The grip and release are crucial to ensure it looks similar to a fastball until it reaches the plate.
