That is, unless F1 is throwing a rising fastball!  |
distance has nothing to do with it. if your feet are double wide and your arms are locked and an 87 MPH fastball blows up in your face while the catcher is on the outside corner diving over...you are going to wear that pitch.
working heel-toe or other stances, it would be easier to duck, slide over, turn, run away, dig a hole, etc.
edit: DG beat me to the punch pretty much. i didnt see page 2
