In baseball and softball, the curveball is a type of pitch thrown with a characteristic grip and hand movement that imparts forward spin to the ball, causing it to dive as it approaches the plate. Varieties of curveball include the 12–6 curveball, power curveball, and the knuckle curve. Its close relatives are the slider and the slurve. The "curve" of the ball varies from pitcher to pitcher. The expression "to throw a curveball" essentially translates to introducing a significant deviation to a preceding concept.

(en) Der Curveball (engl.: Ball, der bogenförmig vom Werfer zum Schlagmann geworfen wird) bezeichnet einen Wurf des Pitchers im Sportspiel Baseball. Hierbei versucht der Werfer, den Ball durch eine bestimmte Bewegung der Hand und der Finger so zu werfen, dass er in eine Rotation gerät. Dieser Drall sorgt dafür, dass der Ball in einem Bogen fliegt, was dem Schlagmann (Batter) das Schlagen des Balles erschweren soll. (de) La balle courbe (en anglais, curveball) est un type de lancer au baseball. Il s'agit d'une balle à effet (breaking ball en anglais). La balle courbe est utilisée par de nombreux lanceurs, bien qu'il s'agisse rarement de leur lancer principal. (fr) 커브(Curve)는 야구에서 투구의 구종 중 하나로서 가장 큰 포물선을 그리며 종으로 떨어지는 공을 말한다. 종으로 떨어지는 구종은 커브 외에도 다양한데 보통 변화구는 직선으로 날아가다가 종으로 떨어지는 반면 커브는 공이 손에서 떨어지는 동시에 큰 포물선을 그리면서 날아간다. 속구와 정반대의 구종이 커브라 할 수 있다. 커브는 가장 오랜 역사를 지닌 변화구이기도 하다.다른 변화구에 비하여 제구가 용이한 편이기 때문에, 확실한 스트라이크를 던지려 할 때 활용되기 좋은 구종이다. 하지만 스핀이 직구의 반대로 돌기 때문에, 타자가 잘 치면 홈런이 될 수 있다. (ko) Een curveball is een worp die gebruikt wordt bij honkbal. (nl) カーブ（英: curveball）は、野球における球種の1つである。比較的遅い球速で投手の利き腕と反対の方向に大きく曲がりながら落ちる（この項では混乱を防ぐため、球種はカーブ、曲がるは一般的な意味とする）。 (ja) Curveball är en typ av kast som en pitcher i baseboll använder för att försvåra för slagmannen att träffa bollen. Pitchern har när han kastar en curveball ett speciellt grepp om bollen och släpper iväg den med kraftig rotation. En baseboll har kraftiga förhöjda sömmar på sin yta, vilka genom rotationen påverkar bollens bana att krökas (curve). Ett liknande kast är slider, som även det är skruvat men något hårdare och därför kan beskrivas som en blandning av en curveball och en fastball. (sv) 曲球（Curveball）棒球中的一種球路。握球時食指與中指握在球的外側縫線處，出手時藉著手腕的順時針方向旋轉與手指的向下施力，使球造成旋轉，進而產生垂直向分力，加上重力的作用，會使球在進入本壘板前的垂直掉落幅度遠大於快速球。曲球於1870年代首次出現，是相當古老的一種變化球。 (zh)
