Easton made a bat called the Z-core several years ago...there were -5s and -8s...but i think that was before the rule changes only allowed the use of -3s in college and high school...after the rule change i think easton changed the model name to something else

what they are doing calculating the speed of a mlb pitch based on the little league dimensions. little league pitchers only throw from 45 feet as opposed to 60.5 feet of the mlb. 74mph from 45 feet is equivalent to 99mph from 60.5 feet. it in no way implies that he throws 99mph. what they want you to see is that if this were a mlb game this is how fast the pitcher would be throwing in comparison. the reaction time is the same for both batters .42 sec

If its unlimited, obvisouly throw it as high as you can. If its 6-12 ft, find a good height that you can constantly hit while throw strikes, thats tougher as a pitchers, its like putting it on a tee for the hitter. Technique wise, i pitch with a backspin on my pitch.  Hold it with all 5 fingers, have your hand face the batter, the ball toeards second, flick your wrist dfor the backspin, thats one way to do it. You could also hold it in your palm, ball facing the batter, and throw it that way, with that you can spin the ball for a bit of a curve. Those are some ways i do it. Good Luck!!

50/70 = 70 foot base paths & 50 feet from Pitchers Rubber to Front of home plate.\n\nLittle League (small diamond) has 60 foot base paths,  Regulation Fields have 90 foot base paths. \n\n50/70 is typically used as a stepping stone between the two, by 12-13 year olds.

According to official baseball rules, a baseball can have a circumference anywhere between 9 and 9.25 inches.  \n\nFrom the MLB website, rule 1.09:  \n\nThe ball shall be a sphere formed by yarn wound around a small core of cork, rubber or similar material, covered with two stripes of white horsehide or cowhide, tightly stitched together. It shall weigh not less than five nor more than 5 1/4 ounces avoirdupois and measure not less than nine nor more than 9 1/4 inches in circumference. \n\nA circumference of 9 inches corresponds to a radius of 1.432 in (= 3.638 cm) and a volume of 12.311 in^3 (= 201.733 cm^3).  (circumference = 2*pi*r, volume = 4/3 pi*r^3.)  A circumference of 9.25 inches corresponds to a radius of 1.472 in (=3.739 cm) and a volume of 13.365 in^3 (=219.016 cm^3).

If a person with a good arm can throw a baseball 100 meters, a smooth pebble the size of a golf ball, having approximately the same weight as a baseball, but much less resistance in normal atmospheric conditions at sea level, could be thrown at least 125 meters by that same person.

1.04\nTHE PLAYING FIELD. The field shall be laid out according to the instructions below, supplemented by Diagrams No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 on adjoining pages. The infield shall be a 90-foot square. The outfield shall be the area between two foul lines formed by extending two sides of the square, as in Diagram 1. The distance from home base to the nearest fence, stand or other obstruction on fair territory shall be 250 feet or more. A distance of 320 feet or more along the foul lines, and 400 feet or more to center field is preferable. The infield shall be graded so that the base lines and home plate are level. The pitcher's plate shall be 10 inches above the level of home plate. The degree of slope from a point 6 inches in front of the pitcher's plate to a point 6 feet toward home plate shall be 1 inch to 1 foot, and such degree of slope shall be uniform. The infield and outfield, including the boundary lines, are fair territory and all other area is foul territory. It is desirable that the line from home base through the pitchers plate to second base shall run East-Northeast. It is recommended that the distance from home base to the backstop, and from the base lines to the nearest fence, stand or other obstruction on foul territory shall be 60 feet or more. See Diagram 1. When location of home base is determined, with a steel tape measure 127 feet, 338 inches in desired direction to establish second base. From home base, measure 90 feet toward first base; from second base, measure 90 feet toward first base; the intersection of these lines establishes first base. From home base, measure 90 feet toward third base; from second base, measure 90 feet toward third base; the intersection of these lines establishes third base. The distance between first base and third base is 127 feet, 338 inches. All measurements from home base shall be taken from the point where the first and third base lines intersect. The catcher's box, the batters' boxes, the coaches' boxes, the three-foot first base lines and the next batter's boxes shall be laid out as shown in Diagrams 1 and 2. The foul lines and all other playing lines indicated in the diagrams by solid black lines shall be marked with wet, unslaked lime, chalk or other white material. The grass lines and dimensions shown on the diagrams are those used in many fields, but they are not mandatory and each club shall determine the size and shape of the grassed and bare areas of its playing field. NOTE (a) Any Playing Field constructed by a professional club after June 1, 1958, shall provide a minimum distance of 325 feet from home base to the nearest fence, stand or other obstruction on the right and left field foul lines, and a minimum distance of 400 feet to the center field fence. (b) No existing playing field shall be remodeled after June 1, 1958, in such manner as to reduce the distance from home base to the foul poles and to the center field fence below the minimum specified in paragraph (a) above.

The pitcher keeps his back foot on the rubber bar on the pitching mound. He is sideways to the batter and is keeping track of the runner(s) on base. This is done to keep the runners from advancing when the pitcher does his normal throw, which is called pitching out of the windup.
