Yes, softball involves Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia. This law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. In softball, when a player hits the ball or throws a pitch, the ball will continue to move in a straight line at a constant velocity unless acted upon by a force such as gravity, air resistance, or contact with another object. Understanding this law can help players predict and control the trajectory of the ball during gameplay.

Very much so. Everything about softball is about physics. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction - a softball hitting a softball bat. The trajectory of a pop-fly can be described by physics. It is always a perfect parabola.
because of the kinetic energy ( the energy of motion) in hitting, pitching, running, and fielding.!! SOFTBALL RULES!!!
