Answer:
There are several different types of pitches.
-Fastball
-Curveball
-Slider
-Changeup
-Knuckle
These are the main different pitches, however, depending on the release of the ball and the particular arm action you can get different results such as:
-Slurve
-Screwball
Then there are different pitches just simply by the grip, but have similar but different results, some examples:
- 2 seam fastball
- 4 seam fastball
- cut fastball
- circle changup
- 3 finger changup
- 12/6 curve
- backdoor or backup curve * it is just a curveball that starts outside on a hitter that bats opposite of your throwing hand and then breaks to the outside corner
