Satchel gave nicknames to all of his pitches, like the bee-ball, the barber, the two-hump blooper, the jump-ball, the trouble-ball, the long-ball, the bat dodger and his fastball, which he called Long Tom. His most unusual throw was called the hesitation pitch, because he stopped his arm for a second right before he released the ball to throw the batterâs timing off.
