Question:

which is faster, the ball leaving the pitcher or the ball leaving the bat.?

if there is a 80mph ball thrown to a batterhow fast will it leave the bat?

Answer:

Pitch Speed 80 mphBat speed 65 mphBall leaves the bat at 98 mphSee The BESR(Ball Exit Speed Ratio) byDrJames Ashton-Miller, DrMichael Carroll,DrKenneth Johnson, DrAlan Nathan Also, in response to another answer: BPF is a rating bats have concerning their performanceIt's printed on all composite and aluminum batsA normal hardwood bat has a BPF of 1.0Bats with a higher BPF than 1.15 to 1.2 are not allowedSo if a ball leaves a wood bat at 90 mph, the fastest it is allowed to leave an aluminum bat with the same test parameters is about 103.5 mph to 108 mphBanned titanium bats had a BPF of about 1.3 to 1.35.
I think you could use wax paper or even tin foil as you just need a non porous surface.
The best stuff in the whole world-GOO GONEJust rub it on, leave it there for about 1/2 hour, then prest Peel them offTake a dry rag and some Goo Gone and use more directly of the wall to remove any sticker residue if there is anyDon't rub too hardLighter is better.
