I didn't mishear, they were wrong. They said multiple times that the batter had to make an effort to avoid getting hit.

Seems like it should have been a balk/dead ball.

Looked it up and there are no balks in softball. It's just called an illegal pitch and auto ball.

Would love for you to take a softball off the knee cap at 70mph from 37 feet away.



But that’s not what we just watched, retard. Good luck with your future lesbian

Looked at the box score. That pitch was on a 0-0 count. It was a HBP

It’s 43 feet. But regardless it would hurt.

no. by the time these 6 ft pitchers and their long release are letting go of the ball, about 37-38 feet is the general consensus. My pitching machine is set up at release point, not rubber distance.

Yea, their best player gets one in the ear-hole for the next AB.

There's no fricking way they should let that simmer over the off-season.

Nope. Release has to occur while in contact with the rubber. Maybe 40 feet.
