Watching the catcher's glove is a good indicator. As KU indicated, set up at the top of the strike zone, so that any pitch above your eyes has to be a ball. Track the ball from the pitcher's hand all the way to the catcher's glove with your eyes, using your nose a pointer. If the catcher turns the glove over or dips the glove noticably, most likely it is a ball. Not always true with off speed pitches and change-ups, especially at the younger/lower levels, but a good mechanic nonetheless.
