Please do not start this again. There's nothing in the article to support a physical upward movement of a ball once it has been released (or reached) a horizontal or downward motion. In fact, the author himself states, "Yes, yes, Egbert; we all know that a baseball does not literally jump in mid-air, it merely appears to do so to the batter. Very good; now sit down and shut up."
