Off topic The Lookouts have one of the coolest logos in baseball I have. Hat that must 15 years old that I refuse to toss out. Even though its the grungiest thingIt’s kind of funny that you posted this we used to go to a facility in Chattanooga, TN (it’s closed now) they had the Irion Mike baseball pitching machines in three cages one at 55, 65 and 75 MPH at 60 feet. DD hit in all three cages at 38 feet and did well in all three. She got to where she was doing really good in all three even the 75, the facility owner asked her one day why she moved to 38 feet when she hit and she advised him that in FP the release point is somewhere around 38 feet and she tries to simulate what she sees in FP.
The phone rang one day and it was the owner of the facility who at that time coached the Chattanooga Lookouts, he told us that some of the boys were complaining that the 75 MPH was too fast for them to hit from and he told them a girl was hitting off the machine at 38 feet, of course they did not believe it could be done. He wanted to know the next time we planned to come up to call him so he could have them come up to see her. We called the next time and of course none of them showed up, but I thought it was cool.
She goes to cages that has 70 baseball and does the Bond’s Drill.
