quote:It doesn't look as fast as you'd think.
From what my friends that are baseball fans say, I was expecting it to look faster.
The speed isn't what is hard to hit if it's flat. It's the speed with movement.
I played in high school and my brother plays in college. I've gone to hit with his teammates before, and they have a guy who throws 98.
I went to hit off of him and it wasn't as fast as I was expecting. I didn't do well, but that is because I suck arse. It wasn't too fast for me to get around on.

on the first pitch, you can tell from his arm angle that it's a curve. in the second, the delivery is a bit different.
