I hope no one else wastes their time answering yet somone who lives in the "mythical land" of the rising fastball.

~Sigh~

Maybe you didn't work enough AAA games to see a rising fastball. One or two games doesn't cut it if you don't have an overhand power pitcher who can throw mid 90's. Or maybe you aren't tracking the ball properly.
