FSN Sport Science Myths: Softball vs. Baseball

Fox Sports has this interesting show called "Sport Science" that tries to prove or disprove sports myths, usually with "scientific" experiments. In this particular episode Sport Science uses Jennie Finch to show that hitting a baseball is actually easier than hitting a softball.

I still think the minor league baseball player can eventually hit her pitches once he gets used to it, but that in no way diminishes Jennie Finch's amazing pitching ability. What's equally impressive is that softball batters at the elite level can hit pitches at this speed... they have my respect!

Enjoy it - this is one of my favorite Sport Science episodes.
