The forkball is a type of pitch in baseball. Related to the split-finger fastball, the forkball is held between the first two fingers and thrown hard, snapping the wrist. The forkball differs from the split-fingered fastball, however, in that the ball is jammed deeper between the first two fingers. The result is that the forkball is generally thrown slightly slower than the splitter, but has more of a "tumbling" action akin to the movement of a 12–6 curveball, as it will drop off the plate before it gets to the catcher's mitt.

Der Forkball (deutsch: Gabelball) ist eine Wurftechnik eines Pitchers im Baseball. Hierbei wird der Ball mit derselben Wurfbewegung eines Fastball geworfen, aber in der Hand zwischen Zeige- und Mittelfinger geklemmt, so dass er unerwartet langsam (Changeup) und mit einer schwer ausrechenbaren Taumelbewegung auf den gegnerischen Schlagmann zukommt. Dadurch soll er sowohl zu zu frühem Schlagen als auch zu Schwingen an der falschen Stelle verleitet werden. Bekannte Forkball-Werfer sind der zweimalige Cy-Young-Award-Gewinner Tim Lincecum sowie Hideo Nomo, der erste japanische All-Star-Pitcher im Major League Baseball.
