Baseball Hall of Fame star Bob Feller told a Fort Lauderdale Baseball School audience that modern players err by seeking advice on throwing spitballs or other trick pitches. He urged focus on fastballs and curves, noting greats like Cy Young and Walter Johnson did not rely on spitter pitches. He warned legalization or overuse could hurt pitchers and suggested bans to curb the pitch. Feller recalled his 266-162 record with Cleveland and 2,581 strikeouts while cautioning against depending on deceptive pitches for success.
