Science of Baseball: Fastball Reaction Time…
imitates a 90-mph fastball thrown by a major league pitcher. While this exhibit doesn’t test if you could actually hit a fastball, it does test whether you could react in time to hit one. When you see the “swing batter” screen, a signal in your eye sends a message to a part of your brain that controls your muscles. Your brain must then send a signal to your muscles, telling them to click.
It will tell you to swing at random times, so wait for it. I haven’t gotten a hit yet.
According to this I’d hit a homerun every time, but I don’t think I’m technically skilled enough to hit a homerun every time. Maybe every second time.
I need to exercise that mouse-click more.
I played a game of baseball in a regulation-sized field in Toronto once, and I hit five home-runs. Doesn’t mean a lot though; the pitcher pitched like a girl.
And how does a girl pitch, Phillip?
This is how one throws like a girl.
