Pitching a Softball overhand is kind of wears you down because of its weight and size. Men also pitch softballs underhand too though . Not sure why its called "soft"ball. Those things aren't soft at all TT-TT

Probably cause men have a lot more strength in their arms to toss a ball at 90 MPH overhand? Or maybe cause its softball... I do not know lol.

That's the reason why. In softball, regardless of gender, pitching is underhand. In baseball, regardless of gender, pitching is overhand. You probably just watched a woman's softball game and not a man's.

BTowns : If you go far back enough (before the Ruthian era), most pitchers pitched underhanded for the most part. And although they are scarce, there are baseball pitchers that pitch underhand.
