Baseball hits the knob of the bat during a pitch and the bat wiggles in the air

      ‘And that, Carl, is why we wear a helmet!’.

      Plus the other, more direct, reasons.

    2. The most interesting part to me is that the spinning of the bat stabilizes it. It would have been cool to see how the bat would have flown if it hadn’t hit the helmet.

      Knowing nothing about baseball, I’m flabbergasted that the ball is able to transfer enough energy to knock the bat out of his hands and make it fly like that. I’d love someone to do the maths on that, because it’s not really computing in my head.

      If you grew up playing baseball you know that connecting with the ball too low on the bat can hurt your hands like hell from the vibrations. I can only imagine this did not feel good at all for the batter.
