I'm sure you guys can set this up. He's in New Orleans or Baton Rouge, so unless he's going to be a gigantic pussy, I don't see how this would be difficult to set up.

Need a softball pitcher and a camera. Guy gets to warm up as long as he wants and then will commence to being embarrassed.

Like you said, I am sure he'd be willing to try to hit a ball for money.

Get on it guys!

nny Finch hosts a segment on the TV program This Week in Baseball. Her segment usually shows her pitching to major-league baseball players, using a softball and pitching from the same distance as she normally would in a softball game. Finch shows her dominance even over MLB players, as she usually strikes them out by using her 71 mph riseball that is equivalent to a fastball of nearly 100 mph in baseball and the pitcher’s rubber is 17.5 feet farther away than in softball!
Tiger, you beat me to it!



THIS. The only player to hit the ball pretty good against her with ease was Barry Bonds because he has the best top hand in MLB history.

If you guys get this going, I would gladly look forward to adding another 50 via PayPal to the fund if the OP hits.

So now the pot is 100.00.

Step up to the plate OP, literally.

You consistently prove you are one of the dumbest posters on this board.

if he bats lefty and just sticks the bat out while already running a third of the way down the first baseline like all the wizzes do then he could definitely get a hit if he runs the MSB mean 40 of 4.49.

This comment is tied in terms of stupidity with the OP.

Seriously? I've always wanted to try it, but I'm not lying when I say I'd probably get embarrassed.

I would like to put 50 on this. I want this set up and put on the youtube.

Is 150 enough to get you on the diamond, or are you scared of a girl OP?

In terms of distance to the plate, softballs probably move more.

Pitchers are only 43 feet from the plate.

move the mound 20 feet closer to the plate in MLB...see how little movement that ball gets over the first 43 feet. lots of the break comes at the end.

I thought the same thing my freshman year and was quickly humbled by the ace of our women's softball team. In around 15 pitches I foul tipped 3 and hit one bomb. The HR came on a change up (which was dumb on her part) and I was using a men's bat.

At LSU softball fan day last year, they had Tyrann Mathieu, Justin Vincent, and a big DL (Sam Montgomery maybe? I might be wrong) all bat against Brittany Mack. Mack made them all look silly. They best they did were a couple of foul tips.

Vincent was actually a pretty good baseball player back in his high school days and he didn't come close.

Inb4 Honey Badger was high and couldn't see the ball

Inb4 Vincent was focused on the fact that Mack was a fine white woman


I would love to see the OP get in and take a few hacks vs. Rachele Fico. He is either an idiot or a troll....I am leaning toward idiot at this point.

That first pitch after the first strike out was sick.
