i don't even get how you can decide whether to swing.
but the pace of the pitching is so great. i wish all professional baseball games were this fast.

It seems really difficult, but it's not as hard as it seems to decide to swing in time.
You pretty much decide right when you see it leave the hands. You can tell where it's going.

Yeah this just reassured me that hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports.

I caught for some guys in high school that threw 89, 90.
It slows down after you've seen it a few times.

I love that view by the way. When watching the video, my brain was telling me to swing or lay off.
The pitch that the batter swung at was the one that right when I saw it leave his hands I was like "money".
It just looks right immediately.

From what my friends that are baseball fans say, I was expecting it to look faster.

At the risk of sounding like a douche Internet badass...
I saw all of those pretty clearly, I guess when you play baseball your whole life that's just a skill you develop

Its really not that hard once you get the timing down (which can be after 2-3 consistent pitches)
