(The following was written es

Whitey Ford, star southpaw of the
New York Yankees.)
By WHITEY FORD
About the middle of last season
I came up with a sinker pitch. 1
had it before but I never had the
courage to use it.
It's thrown with an overhand
motion. I hold one finger on the
ball instead of the conventional
two fingers. I hold my left index
finger on the seam.
It was my best pitch during the
World Series. It helped me win the
first game and the sixth game. It's
a hard pitch for the batter to pull.
Often the batter will hit the sinker
on the ground.
I got the pitch about three years
ago while working on the sidelines.
I was just experimenting. I could
see it dip a little, but it was nothing
like the sinker Clem Labine showed
us in the World Series,
I throw a slow curve and a fast

curve once in a while to keep the
of speed pitching. I throw a slow
curve once i na while to keep the
hitters off stride.
After you learn control it's time
to learn change of speed. And if I
were starting out I wouldn't fool
with the one-finger grip that I use
for the sinker. Get your control
