when sitting in my grandfather's seats on the first base side, pretty good seats, aramis ramirez does not throw liners to first. if i remember correctly, hes a third baseman, in pro ball, and hes a good player (opinion). i might just have super human eyesight, but i can see a drop in the balls that he throws. ive also seen rafael furcal of the braves, who is known to have a very good arm from short, viewing from those same seats throws balls that drop.
could you also state why gravity plays little role on a "LINER", and why there is supposedly no fall over short distances?
