The splitter is an art form among pitchers in Japan. You don’t see as many pitchers in the United States throw splitters but in Japan virtually every pitcher in the World Baseball Classic threw one.
I explore why so many Japanese pitchers throw split finger fastballs or forkballs, including Shohei Ohtani, Yu Darvish, Kodai Senga, Roki Sasaki, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and many more.
