Interesting article on livescience.com on how baseball players pick up the ball and track it.

And Science of Baseball has an interesting game to see if you could actually hit a fastball. My best time is .20 seconds. It looks like you need to be in the .2-.3 range to hit the ball. How is your time?

Swing early just for kicks and see what happens.

More baseball goodness.

Since today we are talking a lot about not the game, here is some more relevant "Oh My God America Sucks News" (that was my sarcasm font, nothing wrong with this one). Barry Bonds' ex mistress poses for Playboy. Can you even be an "ex mistress", doesn't mistress imply that you are not really official anyways? Oh well, shes still nude.
