Slightly Off-topic: Hit by pitch?

Umpires quibbling about physics! Who knew!

I pointed out the formula for the force of a mass moving at a velocity. The velocity is whatever it is, which in this op was near the speed of light, but the force is still related to velocity squared, according to this formula, which is based on conventional physics and as we know, physics takes on another level at the speed of light.

Don't know many catchers catching a pitch at near the speed of light while traveling at near the speed of light.
