RH

I threw a ball that had a late drop down and away from a RH batter and another ball that had a late rise up into a RH batter (up and away from a LH batter). I could manipulate it by changing the pressure on my grip

when I played softball we used to warm up and dick around and I could do some whacky shite with that softball getting it to move late.

Pitching is virtually all about movement .. especially late movement .. you can have mid 90s velocity, but if you have no movement at all, you'll get tattooed .. 90 MPH with movement and you'll have more success .. Someone could have worked on your mechanics .. Add some velocity to your ball movement and it gets interesting .. As tall as you are, someone could've coached up your velocity ..
