It is typically displayed as a horizontal or vertical bar, with an indicator that can be moved along the bar to adjust the value. Sliders are often used in settings where gradual change or fine-tuning is needed, like adjusting volume or brightness levels on a device.

1. Slider

   In baseball, a slider is a pitch that breaks laterally and down, with a speed between that of a curveball and that of a fastball. The break on the pitch is shorter than that of a curveball. The release technique of a slider is between a curveball and a fastball. The slider is similar to the cutter, a pitch which is thrown as a fastball, but differs in the sense that a slider tends to be more of a breaking ball.

Examples of slider in a Sentence

1. Shohei Ohtani:

   (The slider) was working really well for me, especially early in the game, i think they started to catch onto the softer stuff later, so I mixed in more fastballs. Just going with the flow.

2. Bryce Harper:

   It wasn’t heated at all. It was just the moment and a crappy situation, i’ve been playing against Blake since we were 10, 11 years old, so I know there was no ill will behind that at all. The inside pitch is part of the game. He is a great player and a great human being as well. I wish him the best, and I told him to keep throwing that inside fastball because it sets that slider really good.

3. Andrew Blaser:

   It’s not how you race once you’re here, for some people, it is. For me, it wasn’t. It was everything that turned me into the athlete, the coach, the slider that I am today and I have to remember that those things are still there regardless of the outcome.

4. Andrew Kitteredge:

   I was trying to throw a slider down and away and it wasn't down or away, it was a bad hanging breaking ball and he took advantage.

5. Preston Wilson:

   I don't know how you guys feel about this, Blummer and Baggy, but for me, it was the slider, i can take the fastball. But I actually had somebody ask me if I could go back in history and change one thing, I skipped right over slavery and went to the slider. That's how I feel about it.
