    0.17 to 0.20 seconds. I don’t know if that’s good, but I usually got home runs.

    Same, after a few warm ups.

    Seems a bit too simple, despite knowing that in the past (when I was younger and in prime…la la la la) I had quick reflexes, however, taking 4 pitches with a result of a home run, a swing/miss, and two base hits seems a bit too good to be true.

    Most of mine were .19 or .2 seconds. One of my home runs was .13 seconds and I don’t know how that happened.

    went from .36 to .16 seconds after some practice.

    Same as CSS. I got home runs and everything.

    hmmm. this game does not take into account major-league pitching, curve balls, change-ups, strike count, or ball movement, etc etc.

    You not only have to make a swing decision, you have to guess location, speed, and type of pitch before you actually swing.

    I faced 90mph pitching at a minor league fan day, and it was a total blur.

    And then there’s golf: The ball is freaking STATIONARY, yet few golfers can manage to hit it square consistently.

    I can hit home runs with my thumb!
    .18.
    Now will someone sign me to a $10 million dollar contract?
    The “Pinball Wizard” (my 16 year old game console playing son) got a few .004’s.
    Maybe I should sign him up for a summer baseball team.

    Or scientific experimentation. Crap that’s fast.

    If OxyCon can get $10 million, can I get $12 million and a no-trade clause?

    Don’t you mean you hit a googly over deep midwicket for six?
