Ive got to where I can throw straight but now it will go way up in the air. How do I keep my throw straight and not way up in the air?
 
wait to release. make sure you're arm is going over more and farther before you let go of the ball. if it keeps hitting the ground, then you need to release earlier.

hope this helps :)
 
You have to follow through all the way. Thats why its going up instead of straight. Also make sure you arnt releasing to late.
 
sounds like you might have a rising fastball so 1) aim at a lower target. 2) grip the ball across the skinny part of the ball (where the space between the seam narrows). This will prevent the air from catching all four seams and the ball rising on you. 3) check your release point. have someone closely watch you while you throw and see where you are releasing the ball. Generally you want to release it out front and at about eye level to keep the accuracy max.
