just imagine you standing there at the plate with one of those 1-2 or 0-2 counts. Your standing there expecting a fastball, but you know its going to be some cheese of a pitch.
As you see him wind up, you load and he throws it, all of the sudden you see it start to tumble, Its a curve. The one pitch you want to see. If its a good curve, it will start in like its coming at you then it tumbles right to the sweet spot on the plate. You always want to take it the other way.
Really if you look at how the pitcher throws it he should really come over the top more than he does. Its really just to get that extra spin and downward momentum. The lower the pitch the more the movement.
