    www.ehow.com/video_4954595_softball-pitching-curveball-grip.html The middle finger pulls the ball towards the plate. If you were wearing a daimond ring on your middle finger, your would try to point the diamond at the catcher.

    2. It's really hard to explain on a website and there at least three different ways to make the ball spin. It really pays to experiment and never give up on one method. The main idea is to get the ball to spin like a frisbee--if that makes any sense.
