So why is the rise ball so hard to pitch?
After much analysis from other research, the more effective angle to throw a rise ball is 30 degrees. The drag force and drag coefficient both depend on the velocity, which is also an important aspect of the pitch. The velocity needed to counter the weight of the ball needs to be between 60-65 mph to make it effective. This is why the rise ball doesn't become a major part of softball until the later years, around 16.

Why would I disagree? Folkard is number one.

Then again I still get teased for the time I was sitting behind the net scoring and ball went over the catcher I might hae hit the ground. They were playing my state and the batter was crying with laughter. Scumbags
