Jack,

I agree that adding THT produces a much greater acceleration. But the change in velocity (acceleration) is in the wrong (negative) direction. This brings me back to my first point: when batters apply forces that move the bat barrel in a negative direction, they then must use forces to stop the bat barrel from moving in that negative direction to redirect it in a positive direction. This wastes force and takes up valuable time.
