@BenjaminSWatson@IngrahamAngle That's not right either. I was taught to stop and respect the flag and the anthem. Maybe it's parenting or elder leadership that is lacking.
Hereβs what a 100 mph pitch going into a catcher's mitt in super slow-mo looks like. Pretty cool how you can see the vascularity of the forearm after the ball connects. But what's interesting is that if you hold your mitt right, most of the shock and impact are dealt with by the glove, and it's no worse than catching a lobbed ball barehanded.
Baseball is so much cooler than any other sport.
