i havent noticed in any of the studys and articles -pitched ball velocity- . example " to hit a ball 400 feet you need 70mph bat speed" well would that be the same wither the ball is pitched 40 mph or 90mph. just want a lil scientific insight. to me that means a 40 mph pitch is gonna require more bat speed to hit it 400 feet.. alrite just help me clear this up in my head guys...later, geoff..
