D3 school and some are babies out of high school. Not to mention this school is in the Midwest where baseball is not exactly a hot bed unless you are close the the Omaha area. These kids will not be on the same level you see with the SEC, ACC, Pac-12 etc.
Cameraman: so what is you guys strategy for pitching? Girls: well start with a fastball then a riseball then get him with the changeup Cameraman: so what is your pitch- Guys: yes.
How in the world was there a player on your team who could pitch like that. That requires a ton of practice to fast pitch a soft ball underhanded. Little hard to believe.
Ryan Frank how fast was the pitching some girls can’t hit slow I can’t hit under 40 it’s too slow I can’t time with the ball and I’m in front of it I play travel so I’m used to seeing 50-55 and I easily hit it because I don’t have to wait as long for it to reach me so I’m not reaching for it and it comes off the bat faster and goes farther
as a baseballer and softballer i would say the hardest thing between the to is in baseball trying to see from a different release point and softball is to not dip back cause you may swing and miss more, but also the shorter distance
For those of you that keep talking about the pitcher, Clarke University is an NAIA team, so they are equivalent to good NCAA DIII schools and average DII schools. Throwing 81 mph as a freshman is very normal for this level. The average DI pitcher only throws around 85-86 mph. Remember, for all those guys that you see throwing 95 mph for Vanderbilt, there are 5 times as many throwing 85 mph for Long Island University, University of Vermont, and Lafayette College.
@@universenerdd False. The average high school player is usually in the 78-80 mph range. If you are throwing 85 mph in high school, you will easily play in college if you want to (assuming you have at least some control). Now 85 mph isn't getting you into a Power 5 type conference. But there are plenty of guys playing in the America East< CAA, Patriot, Horizon, Mid-Eastern, Mid-American, Northeast, etc... that throw 85 mph. There are also plenty of guys at the DII level that throw that as there is very little difference between the better teams in DII and the lower conferences in DI. Teams like Tampa U. would consistently beat many of the lower DI schools. If you are throwing 85 in high school. Then by the time you a senior in college, you should be throwing 90+. How many guys do you think throw 90+ for these low-level Division I schools
Nicholas Noto yeah it’s not fast but it’s not always about veto if you have movement you can be effective I have more trouble hitting off slow pitching then someone throwing high 80’s to lower 90’s plus Clarke is probably d3 or something
As a softball player I agree. I’ve been up against a pitcher that played for our baseball team and it’s very different from what I’m used to. Both amazing sports to watch at the end of the day, just different executions.
Name one thing that makes softball harder than baseball, and I would really like to see your scientific study that proves softball to be harder than baseball.
@@addisondavis8607 okay yes they were using different things but it was sport v sport why would they give the girls a handicap they can play it like a baseball player
I've played summer league fastpitch and high school baseball. Baseball is MUCH tougher. Our summer league fast pitch team scrimmaged our girls high school varsity squad (ranked in the top 10 in the state for class C in Michigan) who had an all-state pitcher who threw low 60's. Our guys pitcher threw low 70's. We scored 12 runs on the girls in the 1st inning vs 3 straight strikeouts for the ladies. Even though we won the scrimmage, we were also there cheering them on when they went on to play in the districts.
I used to play what we call "fast ball", which looks like your "soft ball" except maybe the ball is smaller and harder, and I had a pretty good on base average (0.62). So someone asked me to come play for their "soft ball" team, which around here means the ball has to go way up in the air (I think you guys might call it "slow pitch"). Anyway I couldn't hit a damn thing. I was constantly swinging well before the ball got to the plate. You'd think that after learning how to hit a ball travelling 60+ mph it would be pretty easy to hit a big fat ball falling out of the sky but I couldn't. I hit one to the fence, struck out all the other times, and then was never asked to play again. So my experience would be that it isn't as easy to change up as one would think.
I played in the 30-40 men's baseball leagues in Houston and Austin. My manager called one day and said we were playing the all women's baseball team the Coors Silver Bullets on ESPN that night! Turns out we were not on ESPN but the Women looked great in batting and infield practice and we all wondered if we were going to lose so we played 100% like we would against men. We won 12-0. The women could not handle the fastball and were pretty easy to hit. Kinda like playing against teenage boys. Noticed the Silver Bullets on ESPN later that year and they switched to playing the over 40 men.
Is there any reason why girls can't play baseball? Girls in general have smaller hands, so why give them a LARGER ball to throw? And why make them throw it underhanded? Is there something in female anatomy that makes overhand throwing impractical? Baseball and softball are very similar, but playing baseball can lead to million dollar contracts. Playing softball doesn't! I'm not saying that women today are good enough to play Major League baseball. But playing baseball gives them a chance, while playing softball gives them NO CHANCE! But maybe that's the point of softball! Can someone explain to me why women are encouraged to play softball while men are encouraged to play baseball? Thanks.
She was like Yea i dont Them the other girl said it was harder than we thought and then she was like yea it was the hitting I was like what you were about to say it wasnt as hars as you thought
The game isn't always decided on how good the pitchers are, guys. C'mon. You need a good catcher, outfield, and infield. Pitchers get all the glory. (most of the time. Not trying to pick on pitchers).
Lol right, I'm a catcher and I have to frame the ball all the time... Yet the pitchers always get the "nice pitch". Not trying to complain... But it gets on my nerves sometimes...
@@TheDarkKnight-g3h ^^ There's a reason MLB grades a fastball as "Elite" if it's over 94mph. Accuracy is important, but Aroldis Chapman was erratic when he was throwing 104 and whiffed professional batters with pitches 2 feet out of the zone some times lol
For all of you people saying that 81 is slow, there are MLB pitchers that throw about an 85 fastball, it’s just that it has a lot of movement. Moving fastballs are hard to hit no matter how fast it is.
If you haven't played both of these sports, meaning actually played on a team, you don't have a right to call out anything about the other sport. You are biased, whether you think so or not, you will lean towards your sport. That's human nature, plus you're uneducated, this was just for fun, it's not serious. So chill out with all of the rude comments.
This is what I've always said. On the surface, the two sports look the same so people naturally try to compare them, but they are just two completely different sports. And all these videos show is softball players are better at softball, and baseball players are better at baseball... Shocker!
All the people arguing about which is harder... Both are equal. Pitching is hard in softball, but in baseball batting is way harder. They are different so it’s hard to compare fielding... since the fields are bigger in baseball.
It’s a lot different to go from hitting 60 mph fastballs to even 81 mph. The boys struck out from a girl throwing in the 50’s with a bigger ball I’d call that sad
well even if the girl is throwing 64 it doesnt look 64 when its that close. a 64 mph pitch is equivalent to a 92 mph pitch and if a girl can throw 70 at that distance its extrapolated to be 100 pmh
Dude if a college baseball pitcher throws 81 and you still can’t hit it, and your batting average is twice as high as the boys, then there’s something wrong
I play both baseball and softball, and I loved them. It got hard to manage as I grew up, especially in juniors. They intimidated me so I stopped playing baseball. I still play softball, and it doesn't matter which one was better. I still woulda loved them regardless 😂😊
Can we be honest? The girls weren’t complaining, they were saying it was harder to hit the ball because the way the pitch comes at you is a whole lot different. No offense, but pitching in baseball is a whole lot easier, sure you have to land the pitch, but softball pitching takes time to learn.
Juice 1. That was a scrimmage. In soccer, scrimmages are rough, but they are also kind of goof off have fun. 2. They were about to play the Russian women’s team for Olympic qualifiers, so obviously they weren’t going all that hard. 3. It was just a fun experience. 4. My 04 (U16) team beat our 03 (U17) team before. We are girls and we beat an older boys team. You’re a crappy person, what would your mother think? Or how would you explain this to your daughter, why she can’t play with the boys when she’s just as skilled and talented and at their level of athleticism?
Softball bats are half the width of baseball bats, so it would be much easier to use a baseball bat to hit a softball than a softball bat to hit a baseball.
That's not how it works. Softball bats are 3/8ths of an inch smaller, but have drop 10s-11s being legal. baseball bats are heavier, and only allow drop 3. Hitting with a softball bat is much easier, you can explode through the zone SO much faster
They aren't at all, if you've PLAYED with softballs and baseballs you'll know this. It's like highschool regulation footballs, they are bigger and less aerodynamic but you can throw it much further than a similar sized college ball due to the LACK of density. Softballs FLY off the bat. (An example of this is the fastpitch homerun derby's, where balls go 500 feet+ easily)
aye this is all imma say... i’ve been playing softball for 10 years and i’m 14, i play select ball for one of the best teams in my state, and we travel around the country and play some of the best teams known. My family owns a softball/baseball complex and often times i practice with the baseball boys. i have, tried hitting off a 73mph 13 year old boy who was throwing strait gas, hardest shit i’ve ever seen. from going to hitting something at a different release point to that was next to impossible. I’ve also seen guys look like dumbasses tryna hit softball pitching. i’ve had this argument with so many people, and i believe softball and baseball have similar concepts, but such diverse techniques and fundemnetals that it’s hard to compare one another. if a guy learned how softball works, he’d be a fucking all star, if a girl learned how baseball works, she’d be a fucking all star however she most likely wouldn’t hit it as far as guys are averagely taller, heavier, and more muscular than girls due to genetic reasons. if you still wanna be a pussy and argue that one sport is better than the other and you have no factual information, keep on doin it. makes me chuckle 😂
I can agree with you more. I played a total of ten years of baseball as a catcher. So I saw my share of batters in baseball. But it also allows me to see some of the key differences between a baseball swing and softball swing. I have always wanted to try going against a softball pitcher both as a batter and just to catch for her to see how different it would be. Both are great sports that take a great amount of skill in order to be any good at.
I’m just saying girls are used to the bigger ball to hit then a baseball in my opinion softballs are easier to hit because they’re bigger bc I’m a softball player and it’s just easier but both did great and both sports are cool
I love baseball and in tired of women saying softball is harder and guys saying that baseball is harder there is no contest on who's sport is the best or hardest there both the same thing but sadly 2019 is all about this and that and no one could just get along nowadays not everyone but h know what I mean
Regardless of the result. Can someone explain to me why girls gotta play a different sport. I get softball pitching is hard but why cant they play baseball
My high school baseball team scrimmaged our softball team on a softball field we hit nukes off them. They got to throw hard under hand and our pitcher lobbied in over hand. But our baseball team is one of the best in state sooo idk if that means anything but it was difficult but once u get used to it it’s easy.
Luke Waggoner ong imlike the rest of these people saying i can throw faster than this bitch and im younger lmao. Its just a fucking vid no body gives a fuck if u can throw faster than 81 lmao
The hard thing about the damn baseball pitchers is they are so freaking fare away it takes 20 years for the ball to reach the plate even tho it’s going so fast.
It's funny that she calls this a strike ASAP.. most people would just say IDK was close if anything... then I think the other girl tried to call the guys hit FOUL asap.. I think another girl quietly said she thought it was fair right after.
it's a lot easier in my opinion to throw over hand than it is under hand. i've seen many people who pitch softball be able to pitch baseball as well, of course not as fast/hard or from the same distance a baseball player would. i've seen baseball players try under hand/windmill pitches and it's a train wreck. your natural throwing position is the way baseballs are pitched, granted under hand is a lot easier on the arm but you don't see fielders chuck a ball under hand from any position.
Girls: discussing pitch strategy
Boys: I’m gonna throw a fastball, and then another fastball
HASF fanatic I’m a junior in Highschool that can confirm we go in without a plan very often lmao
81' mph is a change-up.. But I still wouldn't want to swing at a rise ball in softball...
HASF fanatic honestly same I’m on the guys baseball team never once have we had a strategy 😂
Yes
HASF fanatic but like how you gonna plan if you dont know whats gonna happen like you cant hop over to the other teams locker room and be like “yo what plays yall runnin askin for a friend”
Pitcher skipped leg day
He skipped all types of days 😂😂
Yep. He puts on some muscle in his legs and upper body and he could be hitting 95 with that athletic frame.
Have you seen chris sale? He’s probably the skinniest player of all time but one of the best lefties throwing today
Still threw gas
Damn
How how how is there a college pitcher throwing 81 and the catcher not be able to catch him
Lol true but im guessing he went easy on them
The one at 3:46 ish bounced so
Ryan Cook he changes speeds to make the hitter unbalanced. I play baseball and this kinda thing happens
How old are u and u can't get your grammar right.

Majority of the strikes are from them hitting on clear low balls though.

MrDiabolicmuffin don’t say you’ve never chased before🙄
Softball players have a different strike zone
It’s not easy to see a curveball from a different arm angle
It worked didnt it? If they're gonna chase then as a pitcher make em chase it's a good strat
@@mra4928 thats 100% an excuse
Good video, same age, level of play (as in not a professional vs a college student or retired vs young person). Well done.
They must have a different strike zone in softball
The strike zone is larger.
I live so close to where the first two softball hitters are from
Um I didn’t see who won yet but whatever sport wins it is not better it’s just 3 people playing around
GlueGang GlueFam it’s for fun
Dude if a college baseball pitcher throws 81 and you still can’t hit it, and your batting average is twice as high as the boys, then there’s something wrong
I play both baseball and softball, and I loved them. It got hard to manage as I grew up, especially in juniors. They intimidated me so I stopped playing baseball. I still play softball, and it doesn't matter which one was better. I still woulda loved them regardless 😂😊
Now lets see them face a real college pitcher around 93.
Yolo Swaggins I think 93 is a little too old for someone in college lol
He means velocity lol
Can we be honest? The girls weren’t complaining, they were saying it was harder to hit the ball because the way the pitch comes at you is a whole lot different. No offense, but pitching in baseball is a whole lot easier, sure you have to land the pitch, but softball pitching takes time to learn.
Bro Perfect I never said it was impossible. I said t takes time.
“use the riseball since they don’t have experience”
right handed mlb pitchers that throw rising fastballs: 👁👄👁
Finally, I video that has the softball players hit against baseball players
Baseball catcher can’t block for his life
Unknown Handle Bars 2 he probably wasn’t wearing a cup and anyway there was no need to block it’s just a fun game 🤣
Notice the difference between the distance of mounds to the plate
Lol Wiffing on an 81 mph fastball
Brendon McPhail lol ur tone is so toxic. U try hitting a fast ball fucker plus they are girls and they dont damn hitfastballs in softball.
You realize the ball is smaller and plus baseball pitching is different from softball pitching
Juice 1. That was a scrimmage. In soccer, scrimmages are rough, but they are also kind of goof off have fun. 2. They were about to play the Russian women’s team for Olympic qualifiers, so obviously they weren’t going all that hard. 3. It was just a fun experience. 4. My 04 (U16) team beat our 03 (U17) team before. We are girls and we beat an older boys team. You’re a crappy person, what would your mother think? Or how would you explain this to your daughter, why she can’t play with the boys when she’s just as skilled and talented and at their level of athleticism?
@Juice Jeez, do females offend your manhood that bad?? Be humble "man".
tbh it was easier for the guys to get used to a softball, it’s literally big it’s not hard to hit it.
which is the whole point it's easier, tf is your argument
3:35 she’s one of us let’s go tinleyyyyy
Sounds like both sides got a lot of perspective. Maybe new respect for each other’s game.
3:30 wtf I live 5 minute away from Tinley park I randomly found this video.
xX MARUADERxX same lol
Palos heights
And u play Fortnite
Softball bats are half the width of baseball bats, so it would be much easier to use a baseball bat to hit a softball than a softball bat to hit a baseball.
That's not how it works. Softball bats are 3/8ths of an inch smaller, but have drop 10s-11s being legal. baseball bats are heavier, and only allow drop 3. Hitting with a softball bat is much easier, you can explode through the zone SO much faster
They aren't at all, if you've PLAYED with softballs and baseballs you'll know this. It's like highschool regulation footballs, they are bigger and less aerodynamic but you can throw it much further than a similar sized college ball due to the LACK of density. Softballs FLY off the bat. (An example of this is the fastpitch homerun derby's, where balls go 500 feet+ easily)
aye this is all imma say... i’ve been playing softball for 10 years and i’m 14, i play select ball for one of the best teams in my state, and we travel around the country and play some of the best teams known. My family owns a softball/baseball complex and often times i practice with the baseball boys. i have, tried hitting off a 73mph 13 year old boy who was throwing strait gas, hardest shit i’ve ever seen. from going to hitting something at a different release point to that was next to impossible. I’ve also seen guys look like dumbasses tryna hit softball pitching. i’ve had this argument with so many people, and i believe softball and baseball have similar concepts, but such diverse techniques and fundemnetals that it’s hard to compare one another. if a guy learned how softball works, he’d be a fucking all star, if a girl learned how baseball works, she’d be a fucking all star however she most likely wouldn’t hit it as far as guys are averagely taller, heavier, and more muscular than girls due to genetic reasons. if you still wanna be a pussy and argue that one sport is better than the other and you have no factual information, keep on doin it. makes me chuckle 😂
I just want to say why did you type up a paper for something like this
I can agree with you more. I played a total of ten years of baseball as a catcher. So I saw my share of batters in baseball. But it also allows me to see some of the key differences between a baseball swing and softball swing. I have always wanted to try going against a softball pitcher both as a batter and just to catch for her to see how different it would be. Both are great sports that take a great amount of skill in order to be any good at.
Huh you said chuckle, lol
This was really long but agree
Jinx Official baseball has smaller balls, bigger fields, faster pitching, and more publicity
thats a pretty *nice* speed on that curve
I’m just saying girls are used to the bigger ball to hit then a baseball in my opinion softballs are easier to hit because they’re bigger bc I’m a softball player and it’s just easier but both did great and both sports are cool
For hitting for both sports it’s just hard to adjust to a different style of pitching
Seems like the boys adjusted pretty well compared to the girls
lol The pitcher I doubt was a starter and if he was he was going easy on them
it’s so weird the softball pitchers are so close and it was only 64 mph
I love baseball and in tired of women saying softball is harder and guys saying that baseball is harder there is no contest on who's sport is the best or hardest there both the same thing but sadly 2019 is all about this and that and no one could just get along nowadays not everyone but h know what I mean
metsfan2007 yessir right like i gets tired when say that because it’s like the same thing
@@miyarosie5364 texhinaccaly yes really on the pitches are different
Just realized softball might be a little more difficult than baseball
*I've played softball for 3 years and now I play baseball the switch from a softball to a baseball was super easy somehow*
Rylee Parker no one cares
You are probably ass
RaVe Paba shut tf up
Almond Joy T and you shut tf up too dickhead I’m pretty sure you just sit on your ass and eat sun chips all day
That’s cool
HEY! When the softball batters were up, wheres the chants?
I’d piece them up
The way the pitcher is throwing it makes it so hard to get a normal hit
Regardless of the result. Can someone explain to me why girls gotta play a different sport. I get softball pitching is hard but why cant they play baseball
Because boys would crush them no offense boys have more physical strength and boys do t want to make girls cry saying it directly.
My high school baseball team scrimmaged our softball team on a softball field we hit nukes off them. They got to throw hard under hand and our pitcher lobbied in over hand. But our baseball team is one of the best in state sooo idk if that means anything but it was difficult but once u get used to it it’s easy.
And you beat girls at it.
81 is cheese
Luke Waggoner lol
Luke Waggoner ong imlike the rest of these people saying i can throw faster than this bitch and im younger lmao. Its just a fucking vid no body gives a fuck if u can throw faster than 81 lmao
Take the top hitters and pitchers from baseball, and do the same with softball players, then we would have a show
Baseball is better lmao
Can we just leave it at both are hard
Thank you
Dinger Life 91 It was hard because neither practiced the other sport
Haha yeah lmao
Baseballs harder
1) smaller ball
2) bigger variety of pitches
3) fast pitches
The hard thing about the damn baseball pitchers is they are so freaking fare away it takes 20 years for the ball to reach the plate even tho it’s going so fast.
2:28 That was a strike?!? At least 2 inches inside!!
William B fucking thank you
It's funny that she calls this a strike ASAP.. most people would just say IDK was close if anything... then I think the other girl tried to call the guys hit FOUL asap.. I think another girl quietly said she thought it was fair right after.
Ayeee chargers squad?
It's been a year where the rematch
I love softball
That was dope! So weird not watching people hate each other ...is this what things were like before? All good attitudes?
Every one knows baseball is the best sport
ttv nerd XD of coarse it is
Everyone has their different opinions,no sport is the best,all sports are equal
06A.person 60 I know for a fact baseball is better
it's a lot easier in my opinion to throw over hand than it is under hand. i've seen many people who pitch softball be able to pitch baseball as well, of course not as fast/hard or from the same distance a baseball player would. i've seen baseball players try under hand/windmill pitches and it's a train wreck. your natural throwing position is the way baseballs are pitched, granted under hand is a lot easier on the arm but you don't see fielders chuck a ball under hand from any position.
Of course, virtually nobosy ever throw an underhand in baseball except on a toss while softball players still throw overhand when fielding.
I threw that hard in 9th grade in high school. Tf lol
Jonathon Reed sure you did buddy
Stay humble before you look like the biggest idiots on the internet, kids.
Jonathon Reed And you most likely didn’t even make it into NAIA 😂🤔
I’m sure
Rian Parker It is possible
