75 miles per hour is about 110 feet per second. So a pitch thrown at that speed will reach home plate in a little more than half a second (about .55 seconds). A pitch thrown at 90 MPH will reach the batter in about a tenth of a second less (.45 seconds).

Does a pitcher throw faster from a mound or flat ground?

A pitcher generally throws faster from a mound than from flat ground due to the downward angle and leverage provided by the slope of the mound. The height of the mound allows pitchers to generate more momentum and utilize gravity to assist their throwing motion. This elevation also helps with the pitch's trajectory and can make it more difficult for batters to see the ball until it is closer. Overall, the mound enhances the effectiveness and speed of the pitch.
