There are 25 known pitch types in MLB Power Pros, each assigned a direction on the 8-direction control stick.
A pitcher can have up to two pitches per direction. Generally, the pitches will break in the general direction of the control stick (fastballs stay up, off-speed pitches are down, curveballs and sliders break left, screwballs and shuutos break right).
The following list is for RIGHT-HANDED pitchers in Behind Batter View. For a south-paw (or behind-pitcher view), just swap left(down) and right(down).
I've included some of the in-game abbreviations.

- 4 seam Fastball (4SFB)
- 2 seam Fastball (2SFB)

- Slider (SLD)
- Hard Slider (H-SLD)
- Cutter or Cut Fastball (CUT)

- Knuckle Curve (KNCB)
Right
- Shuuto -a sort of reverse slider (SHU)
- Hard Shuuto (H-SHU)
- Sinking Fastball (SIFB)
Down-Right
- Sinker (SNK)
