Nathan -
There is a wonderful website posted by
The Exploratorium
all about the physics of baseball pitches. I think you'll find
everything you want there (even an activity you can try yourself about
curveballs!):
Putting Something on the Ball
They've also got information on the physics of the rest of baseball and other sports.
