The maximum speed in which a softball can come off the bat at in mph. (The bat's composition or structure is designed to limit the speed of the ball off the bat to 120mph)
"Off the bat" means happening right away.
The idiom "right off the bat" means immediately or without delay, right from the start or the beginning of something. Just like a baseball is hit off the bat right away, this phrase suggests taking action or reacting promptly.
a baseball bat is a "lever" in the way that the ball comes off the bat. When the baseball makes contact with the bat, the bat gives, or bends. What causes the ball to then travel is when the bat snaps back into a straight object. Thus, the bat is, in a way, a lever.
You take a saw and cut through the top portion of the bat. It does not matter if its wood or metal. Although you might want to post a question on how to put the bat back together if you are planning to do that later
it's "off the BEATEN path" and it means to take the road less traveled.
BPF is bat performance factor or the bounciness of the bat. The higher the number the more bounce a bat has which translates to the ball coming off the bat with more speed and inertia. Sanctioning bodies limit the BPF typically to a 1.20 or less.
It means back off jerk
It means I ain’t got no I tire clue
The bat has eyes, but it's blind. It uses something called echolocation where the bat sends out rays, or sensors. Those rays bounce off of a solid object and back to the bat, so it knows whether to move out of the way or to avoid hitting the object.
Yes. Echolocation works by bouncing waves off of objects. A sound proof room would not allow sound to escape but there are still walls in the room to allow a bat's echolocation to bounce off of and back to the bat.
if the batter is in bunting position(with the bat over the plate) he needs to pull the bat back. Otherwise strike. And if he has 2 strikes and fouls off a bunt its considered strike three.
