Very interesting. Can you share some of the analysis and background that led you to this conclusion?

remember i was in 8th grade but this is what we did, we took 50 at bats from major league hitters swinging at fastballs and how long it took them from the time they started their swing until their bat would go through the strike zone. then we took the basic amount of time it takes for the human body to start to react to a pitch and did some calculations based on how far to the plate the ball would be before a batter could start their swing. for a 109+mph fastball, the bat would never be able to make solid contact and at the very best it would just barely get a piece of the ball
