Where have you been? There are plenty of girls playing baseball. Many of the college fastpitch players played baseball, but transferred to softball so they could play in college.

Are you saying a girl can hit a 70 mph ball from 43 feet, but can't hit a 90 mph ball from 60 feet away? I think with practice they could do the same, just as I believe if a baseball player practiced he could hit a fastpitch.

Made the comment about MLB players not being able to hit a pitch from Jenne Finch because one of the posters was saying that fastpitch softball was easy.

at the college or MLB level, which was what you responded to? Care to list all the girls playing NCAA or MLB baseball? I'm not too interested in a girl playing high school baseball against kids pitching 70 mph

Yes, I'm saying a girl would not be able to hit college or professional pitching. Little league pitchers are throwing the equivalent of 90+ mph pitches with how close the mound is, and I don't think little league players could hit MLB/college pitching either

Given a modicum of practice, MLB and college players would crush the best softball pitchers.
