"My screw ball isn't as good as Carl Hubbell's. He throws his with more of an overhand motion. Mine is more side arm. A screw ball is a troublesome ball for a right-hander to hit, for, thrown by a left-handed pitcher, it breaks away from him. Its break is not so sharp as that of a curve, but it seems even more deceptive. As the batter says, it fades away." - Larry French in Baseball Magazine (January 1934)
