I was wondering about this as well. I know Michigan wanted INT on the retire runner, but the umpires made the right call. S.R. was not close to being interfered with.

BTW: Did anyone see the wild 7th inning of the game. What a great finish for Michigan and a heartbreaking ending for ASU.

All I can say is "Go Blue"

The further the leap the less reaction time for a batter. Ergo advantage.

Do the math.
70 mph = 369,600 feet per hour /60 = 6160 feet per min /60 = 102.6667 feet per second

Reaction time for a 70mph pitch at
43' is .42 seconds
42' is .41 seconds
41' is .40 seconds
40' is .39 seconds
, etc.
