People who dont understand baseball don't realize that batters have virtually no time to decide what to do with a 95 mph pitch, as soon as the ball is released, you have to predict the ball's end location and basically start your swing as soon as the ball is released, then you have to decide whether to swing or lay off. There's a reason why hitting a baseball is one of the hardest things to do in all of sports.
.......is that why when they do make contact they sorta do a light jog to the base because they can't believe they actually got a hit? I never seen a sport with such low amount of hustle.
@@Multi.SlayerHustling on hits you know you aren’t going to reach on is just asking to be injured. While there are definitely times when players don’t put in as much speed as they should, 99% of the time a player runs as fast as necessary in order to get the most out of their hit.
MLB hitters have a god-like ability to process information. They've got a fraction of a second to read pitch location, velocity, and break. It's a miracle anyone can hit against modern MLB pitchers.
It's called batting practice and muscle memory. The more a player practice hitting a curveball, the better chance he'll hit it due to muscle memory. It becomes natural. This is of course all things being equal. A strikeout can also depend on many things besides the pitcher having good stuff.

I've faced up to 95mph as a hitter. As velocity increases, the perceived difference increases also. There's a huge difference between 85 and 88mph. But the difference seems much bigger from 90 to 93. At 90mph or so, you start hearing the ball out of the pitcher's hand a lot more. It's a hiss and a slight buzz as it approaches the plate. And it's louder than anything else in your brain for that half second. The faster the pitch, the louder the buzz and it's a little bit terrifying. Good times! :) Overall though, the animation is good at showing relative velocities and reaction time required. Now just get your hands on a high end Magnus effect simulator and you can start throwing deuces. :P
This looks pretty good. Great depiction of the reaction time. What’s crazy though is that nothing could ever capture what it’s really like unless you’re standing in the batters box. I played baseball through college and I have no idea how these guys in the pros do it. The best pitcher I ever faced barely scratched the surface in the pros. He was an absolute stud in college. Threw the ball over 95 miles an hour as a pitcher and he led the league in Home runs as a hitter. Now the slowest pitchers in baseball will throw 95. They pull 100 like it’s nothing. A guy that throws upper 90s to 100 with multiple pitches is just insane.
This explains why like a third of all current MLB at-bats end in strikeouts these days. Many more pitchers now can throw 90, 95, 100 mph. Some are now hitting 102 to 105 mph.
As a hitter who had the “lucky” chance to face 101mph in a game, in my experience, 100 and 92 look almost identical to the eyes, however, when swinging at 100, I felt like my hands were so slow, like suddenly my bat speed disappeared
90mph is 132 ft/sec. The rubber is 60.5' away. That means from the rubber to the plate takes only 0.4583 seconds. At 95mph, that is 139.333 ft/sec and only 0.4342 sec. 100mph, 146.6667 ft/sec, 0.4132 sec.
Nice. Would like to see the view as hitters and catchers point of view. A break down in different mound differences. Like, 45 50 55 60 65 for mound distance for 10-12 years then distance and speed for average 13-16 , high school , and the. Professional. I think it would be useful
To make it more realistic, you could have factored gravity in. The equations are simple, and it shows the additional time you get on the slower pitches due to the loft needed to reach the plate.
I can only imagine what an animation would look like explaining the run speed going first to third, critical of competent base running on any level. ..and how about rounding third heading home.
I remember getting in one of those batting cages at an Espn Zone and you could select from different mlb pitchers. I chose Verlander & i think it was set to 90mph or close. The loud pop of the ball hitting the wall mat behind me followed by the swish of my bat followed by laughter from my friends.
like a 1/3 of a second to adjust to 100 mph fast ball, it's mostly a guessing game, will it be any of the various pitches thrown and decide which one in a fraction of a second,
I stopped tracking the ball well as a hitter at like 58 mph lol. I can't imagine standing in there. It's like a video game. Hitting the button before the pitch even comes
Unless you’ve stood in the batters box and faced live pitching, you can’t appreciate how difficult it is to make solid contact. Throw in a curveball or a change up, then a fastball looks even faster.
This is really good for helping people understand at a basic level. Even if it doesn't actually represent the true speed of a pitch because the horizontal velocity by a slower pitch will be greater then that of a faster pitch. This leads to a 40mph pitch being even slower relative to a 100mph than indicated here. But could you possibly alter the animation to include the most efficient arch for each ball speed?
It'd be different if it was always a fastball. Imagine facing someone like Andrew Miller who threw upper 90s fastball and alternated that with one of the nastiest sliders you'll ever see.
the velo feels exaggerated and surprising cause the pitcher's delivery is so nonchalant and doesn't appear to conform with what you may expect in real life. It would be interesting if you could capture just the 'silhouette' of an actual pitcher and alter the perspective accordingly.
Hey, that was great! This shows a “fastball” but if you want to do a 2.0, you should show a couple of other pitches like curve and sinker. Also, you might want to think about collaborating with some baseball commentators like Jomboy and your idea could really take off! I think you’re on to something here. Thank you for this video.
This is likely faster than in the box since the ball is sustaining speed instead of losing it and has no arc. The reason why it feels slow is because there is no vertical movement to account for. If you throw two objects with the same horizontal velocity but one flat and one in an arc, the one with the arc has a greater total velocity due to vertical movement.
Because it’s only tracking the ball so it feels like there’s more time but when you account for the hitter needing a certain amount of time to swing the bat, there’s hardly anytime to react.
Not to knock you or anything but these animations lack physics. A 40mph pitch doesn't travel in a straight line across a distance of 60.6ft. A 40mph pitch would have a significant arch to it.
Bud let it go.. it’s just to prove the ones who think they can hit a baseball when all they do is play MLB THE SHOW. I think the UA-camr knows such physics.
@24Baseball Mate. Use a little critical thinking. Obviously the poster knows how the basic physics behind it works. I didnt say they don't. Just that the animation doesn't reflect that. Also no one who thinks hitting a baseball is playing MLB the Show. Because they don't care about baseball and know next to nothing about it
Kinda like a hockey goalie, almost no time to react with your natural reflexes, it's anticipation, reading, bit of luck even though i dont believe in luck
@@Allstar7everynameistaken no one that throws 94 talks like that, you gotta have multiple schools and even MLB organizations wanting you at that speed lmao.
I would recommend seeking pitching coaches or videos to improve your form as well as strength training. As a 17 year old your fastball needs to average 75-85 mph.

one trick to hitting balls in the upper speed range is that you have to start your weight shift before the ball is released from their hand.
