Rachel Garcia in her Volt's debut........ She had 'Tunnel Vision' it seems. #EffectiveVelocityTunnels

100/100.........at 276 feet, you can 'miss hit' the ball by about 25% and still leave the yard. That's why it's so important to strive for 100/100.

Look closely at the netting........Nat's Mike Rizzo is in danger.

As if on cue, Bubba does the same. Fully locked out on the lower locations, lead leg and lead arm. The locked out lead arm is paramount in softball because of the greater force involved in the ball bat collision in softball hitting.

Another example, although this one was probably just a bit after contact when the lockout happened.

The lead arm is bent just before impact on the left, but locks very close to impact, if not a millisecond before. This is the very next frame.

Note the location.........hard away is where hitters live, whether they are aware of that or not. The default speed hitters tend to gear to is the hardest pitch away or down.

Everyone knows lefty batters are WAY better on the down and in pitch than righties yeah? Not in BA, SLG and HR% - One of the oldest Myth's in baseball is not true, at least over the last 10 MLB seasons.
