The 12–6 curveball, unlike the normal curveball (also referred to as the \"11 to 5 curve\" or a \"2 to 8 curve\" for its motion), breaks in a downward motion in a straight line. This explains the name \"12–6\", because the break of the pitch refers to the ball breaking from the number 12 to the number 6 on a clock. While the 11-5 and 2-8 variations are very effective pitches, they are less effective than a true 12–6 because the ball will break into the heart of the bat more readily.The pitch is used throughout Major League Baseball."@en }
