Physics of baseball/bat collision - GIF

[Harvey Melvin Richards]

Yikes! Geeks out hardly describes his condition, terminal I'm afraid.

I've only been to one game, local bush league amateurs.
One pitcher was incredible though.
No matter how wildly any his batters swung, he could hit their bats. I guess opposition tired of his skill, having him removed from playing further.

I have been to 1 major league, Pittsburgh Pirates when I was in Kindergarten or 1 grade. Also went to 1 fast pitch softball game with wife #1. She kept complaining that someone was going to get hit by all the foul balls into the stands. Sure enough, she took one right between the eyes, sunglasses exploded, and 2 black eyes for a couple of weeks. I do not remember any broken bats though.
