Not at all true and you know it lmao, don't act like subbing in players isn't a thing in every sport, especially for developing players in garbage time. Just say what you really mean dude.

Still a groundout. Just adding more variables. But yes still an emotional toll. Good thing it didn’t happen

I'm basically 100% you couldn't do that.

I also couldn't do that, and I'm naturally athletic and hit airborn rocks with sticks pretty effortlessly. Still, I have no doubt that I couldn't hit a 90mph slider while under more pressure than I've ever experienced in my life by a long shot.

More like he survived it. Succeeding implies victory, which he definitely took the bigger ass whooping.

But what about gender equality? I thought women could do everything that men could do better than men could do it. I find it hard to believe that the media has been lying to me. You wouldn't be suggesting that, would you?

That kind of thinking is dangerous and misogynistic.

The issue with this is that 70 MPH softball pitches are rare, it's much more common to face pitches in the mid 60s. Average D1 is around 64 MPH or 93.87 Feet per second meaning from a mound which from 43 feet away means you have .458 seconds until it crosses the plate. vs baseball and a 91 MPH fastball on a 60.5 foot mound you have .453 seconds until it crosses the plate. Part of the assumption is on release point etc. But time until impact is basically the same. Which is the more common issue.
