it's alot harder than it sounds Maybe 2 out of 100 off the street could. Maybe 15 out of 100 highschool seniors could. Most people that think they could wouldn't have the bat speed

i believe i could with the proper speed, i wouldn't presume to hit more than 1 or 2 with the machine at a speed of at least 70 MPH. i have played and coached for years at the high school level. and am used to that speed, with an aluminum or graphite bat. #2 10 maybe, you have to have timing and speed and be used to it. but their are some out of 100 that would be athletic enough to hit 1, also.having the speed high and making good contact would be key. or pulling 1 down the right and left field lines!

I couldnt with wood, i could with aluminum. People that have never hit with wood have no idea how hard it is to get the ball to go.

If the pitching machine was set at about 20 mph, that sounds like my speed. To the other question, maybe 10 or 12.

I don’t think I could. RATS–100 off of any street USA couldn’t either
