    • @adamsojh

      Xendava bare hands. Gloves affect the way you throw. And you can't have anything on you on your hands. No tape, band aids, super glue, nothing.

      Yes, Max and the rest won't tell the secret. I know the secret slider and am slowly getting it out there. I tell players, scouts, coaches the last 2 years and very slowly it is happening. I told Scout Del Unser at Dbacks training 2017 vs mexico and now Patrick Corbin is throwing the Carlton slider I told Unser about. Joe Garagiola told me in 1978 and now I'm passing it on to you and others. No video needed, just get a ball and throw it like a football, STIFF WRIST. It will work first time. I'm on facebook, key in slider slider I have a dated video from 2016 showing the simple grips and then saying the important information in 28 seconds. Good Luck!

  • @rogerbeshens7713
    @rogerbeshens7713 Před 6 lety

    You tube Steve Carlton slider montage. Grab a ball, throw it like a football, STIFF WRIST. If you throw it over the top it will have a massive drop. 3/4 slot will be Andrew Miller action. You don't need any pressure on the middle finger or any of that, the ball will spin from hand perfectly just doing a 4 seam grip on the LABEL. Once you learn your break it's important to find the right spot on the rubber to maximize effectiveness. Good Luck!

That's why I'm slowly getting the word out and fight back so another guy will get more publicity. Patrick Corbin is my latest success, I told scout Del Unser, spring training 2017 and didn't take long. The slider i mentioned above is the Steve Carlton slider, the best one! You tube Steve Carlton slider montage, see for yourself. Good Luck!

    SALVATION is the most important thing in this life, it’s you accepting JESUS’s free gift to enter heaven when you die, you don’t have to be perfect you don’t even have to be good. You just gotta believe JESUS died for you and as it says in John 3:16 “For GOD so loved the world that he gave his one and only son that who ever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” And if you believe that and want to say a prayer like this you can “Our father in heaven I believe I’m a sinner and I repent of my sins, GOD I believe that you sent your one and only son to die for us and GOD I Believe that you rose your son from the dead three days later, and JESUS come into my heart and save me.” And if you believe that you can be saved rn

      Throw 2 seamers and hope you get a tail or sink. But here is your bread and butter. Throw it like a football, STIFF wrist, over the top massive drop. 3/4 slot nice slurve like Andrew Miller. Grip it like a 4 seam fastball but on the LABEL, NOT the horseshoe. You tube Steve Carlton slider montage and watch your new breaking ball. His is the over the top release. Everything is fastball mode until arm starts coming forward, then throw like football, STIFF WRIST. Good Luck!
