spinny

The room got spinny and my head throbbed behind my eyes.

"I'm not just talking Liverpool, I'm not just talking Ireland, everywhere I go people are just running at me and they just do the spinny elbow."

Lance McCullers Jr. and that spinny curveball he has trademarked during his Astros tenure are still a staple of this rotation.

And then he hit a shot his caddie described as a “low, cutty, spinny gap wedge” to 18 feet and made the putt.

That confidence didn’t stop him from dropping a half-dozen expletives while taking early batting practice alone one afternoon early last week, asking Reds coaches to adjust the velocity and spin rate every few pitches — honing his swing against what he calls “spinny” fastballs, the kind he sees so often these days.
