He would've gotten a pitch right down the middle that he could drive.
Again, feels like we aren't competing.
Really? I hope he throws 40 pitches then.Quote:

Agree.Quote:

This team would be significantly better next year by upgrading at catcherQuote:

No it can't. Even a rise ball in softball doesn't really rise more than a inch or two and that's halfway to the plate.Quote:

Yeah, I know about the studies, and that's probably true with a baseball thrown by a human. If a machine did it with enough spin, it might happen. Studies also say that a curve ball can't curve (curves basically go down, not side to side), but they can drop faster than a fast ball would do, so it's aiding gravity and falling faster.Quote:

Announcers and fans also speak about a pitcher's "velocity", when what they really mean is "speed". They speak of him having a velocity of 95 mph, for example, but don't mention direction. Velocity is a vector quantity that has both direction and speed. A mere technicality.
Back to the game ... we're getting hammered ... figuratively.
Guarantee he scoresQuote:

I'm sorry, but we are not beating this team. Not today, not tomorrow, not this year. We've got freshmen looking clueless and 2-0 count bunting catchers....they've got guys trying to knock the damn fence down with line drives. Men vs Boys
The thing is, with all the good ABs we've had, if we would have just had decent ABs in the other ones we could easily have 4+ runs.Quote:

Getting that guy is shocking
Yes!! Good grief he is liver is the whiniest little fella I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s like a constant crying.Quote:

I don't know about actually rising, but it can slow the rate of descent.....at least a little. That can make it appear to rise. I tend to agree that it would be next to impossible to generate enough loft to overcome downward trajectory and gravity on an overhand thrown ball.Quote:
