Definition of a two-seam fastball in English English dictionary

A two-seam fastball.
two-seamer
two-seam fastball
A pitch thrown with a grip in the "horseshoe" orientation of the ball, with the rotation at a slight angle resulting in less Magnus effect as compared to a four-seam fastball since only two of the ball's seams cross the flight path; the pitch is delivered with a similar velocity as a four-seam fastball, but has a degree of sink

His two-seamer has a heavy sink and keeps the infielders busy.
