Wow, I didn't see anywhere in these comments where they are impressed about the fact this pitcher is under 12 years old. She's amazingly accurate. I could care less about the fact that the boys couldn't hit the ball. Good job girl. Keep up the hard work!
PianoKat umm actually, the first kid swung all three times, the second kid his first strike was a high inside strike, one foul and another swing and miss. I would say that’s pretty accurate
There are hundreds of girls her age, over her age, and below her age that throw strikes. If we continue to beg society to acknowledge the greatness of female athletes we will never reach the level we want for our girls. The boys failed and that's awesome.
Softball is way easier than baseball. But at the same time a lot harder for baseball players. There are two different release points for these sports. When you have a softball player pitching to a baseball player it's inverting the release point for the baseball player. If you gave that boy an hour in the cage hitting softballs he would adapt to the inverted release point making it easier for him to hit but softball, on the other hand, softball would be different because not only is the release inverted the ball is smaller and has more spin. Making it much harder for even a softball player who is used to baseball to hit. Another indicator is the fields themselves. 11u baseball teams play on fields the size of your avg softball field. If anything a proper comparison would be LLWS vs Softball because there are more similarities between the two.
Just saying, softball and baseball pitchers have completely different release points meaning the pitch will be at a different plane. These sports do not mix in terms of hitting.
Zack Swartz I agree. If the boys had never seen an underhand pitch before it would be too much to get used to - heck the King of Courts struck out three all stars from baseball back I think in the 60s - he was a fastball softball pitcher. The thing I noted was the first kid actually had the right timing just swung under the ball which makes sense as the ball would rise instead of fall.
Having played Baseball from kindergarten to High school ,I have to say all these young athletes are very talented and exceptional at the game .. Very impressive , much LOVE !!!
I’m not surprised they struck out, they’re used to baseball, but I’m also proud because so many boys talk about how much easier softball is and make girls feel bad about it. That pitcher is absolutely amazing though!!! I’d die up at that plate..
As a Softball player myself I hate when boys say that girls can't do the same thing that they do. We practice hard just like you guys. Just because we are girls and you think we like makeup and other stuff doesn't mean we can't play a sport😒
Peyton Oller that girl was not throwing close to 70 mph, 50 maybe. The pitch itself is not hard to follow, girls don’t have an innate ability to see a softball pitch better than boys, the two sports are completely different. An underhand pitch is hard to see for a baseball player and an over hand pitch is hard to see for a softball player. Case and point...
The biggest Issue I haven't isnt cuz a girl can strike out a guy, it's how big of a deal everyone makes it, you all say it's no big deal and we are freaking out and getting butthurt and stuff but its reasons like this that people think the ways they do, yall make it one huge thing like WOW look at that a girl struck a guy!!! Dont make a big deal out of things you say are not.
All these comments saying "move her back" or "let's see her hit a 80mph curve ball" dude.... what do you think college softball is?? Lmao stop getting offended because girls can actually be better than guys at things. Just sayin lol.
I grew up on men's fastpitch softball in the late 70's and early 80's. We didn't have Little League at that time. The high school we went to had a VERY good varsity women's fast pitch team, ranked in the top 10 in the state. The varsity softball coach challenged us to a scrimmage- we were 9th and 10th graders at the time going up against Juniors and Seniors. The game wasn't even close. The girls could not even touch our pitcher, who was throwing low to mid 70's underhand, and we destroyed their pitcher, who threw low to mid 60's. Our #4 hitter could hit over 300 ft and most of the boys team could hit well beyond their 225 ft fence.
This is when you ask for 3 or so pitches to bunt so you can actually recognize the ball for the first time ever. Because looking at a ball coming up instead of downwards is different than normal. Honestly I probably wouldn’t hit to well the first time, but give me 2 weeks and it’d be easy
My son's Legion team played a double header against the city softball team. It was the middle of game 2 before they figured out the pitching, and they split the two games. It was fun, and their eyes were opened to softball skills.
Oh Jesus let a girl hit this pitch or that! The point was the girls softball game is very advanced and a lot of guys would strike out! I coming from the baseball world at a high level now to coach girls fast pitch have never been so pleased to be wrong!! I thought it would be grueling, awful ball and I can honestly say I've had the time of my life!
Men's base ball is harder than women's baseball. He couldn't hit the ball because women softball players throw the ball underhand, which means the ball has to travel up to the hitters box. In men's baseball, the pitchers throw overhand, which means the ball falls into the hitters box. You have to account for this small change in pitch or else it will be harder to hit.
I'm with you...I started coaching baseball when I was 19...coached H.S. for 12 yrs. every sicne i started coaching Fastpitch softball...in three yrs, i've had more fun...I'm looking for a pitching coach. I can't figure that shhhish out
As a softball, and a baseball player. I can say that these two games are almost completely different, especially from the way the ball is pitched in both games. So it is understandable that these boys are having trouble hitting the ball, when the girls will most likely do the same thing.
Part I find funny is how people don’t understand that that the pitches are completely different, in baseball the ball goes downward and the swing even goes upward, while for softball the pitch actually goes up and they swing downwards
Like I get it she can strike him out and I’m proud of that for her But everyone is saying hey salty boys and I don’t see any In the comments Again not defending the boys or accusing the girls but come on comment section
As a girl myself who has been in a variety of sports, volleyball, swimming, dance, softball, etc. I can let you all know that softball and baseball are two completely different sports with different release points. Baseball players wether you’re a guy or a girl will have a hard time hitting a softball fast pitch with no experience hitting underhand pitches, hence why these boys had a hard time. You can’t exactly defy the laws of science and say that women are stronger than men when it comes to anything in the sports realm, yes you can be the best in your division but never in both as they are both drastically different half the time, an example would be gymnastics, for females it’s meant to show off grace and balance, while for males it’s meant to show off strength and force. If you told a male gymnast to tumble as a female, they would have a hard time, if you told a female gymnast to do the hoops, they would have a hard time. Hence why you can be the best in your division and not both, males are just scientifically proven to have bigger bones, organs and muscle mass, while women have more fat deposits, wider hips, and narrow shoulders, a female softball player even with a lifetime of experience would not make it in the baseball realm, or male softball realm, it is not hate or sexism, it is pure facts so if you could please stop getting into wars about how men are salty over a girl beating you a boy, no one is salty, just tryna let you know you sound dense and ignorant because you’re basically implying a female can beat a male, which would not be the case if both were trained in the SAME sport.
I am a 13u pitcher that throws 70 mph from a major league mound. This definetly looks harder considering the fact that it is already hard to hit a 70 mph ball from 60ft 6in and to move it closer would be impossible to hit. Boys, softball is a whole different world to what we are used to seeing. It's harder I think.
Different sports... don't mix EDIT: btw I'm not trying to say that boys are better than girls, I'm just saying that the two sports are very different in multiple ways.
LittleKay Cutie rubber is closer, fences are shorter, bases are closer, pitches move differently, bats are longer, different hitting mechanics. So just the pitching is different?
I like how at the end the narrator didn’t belittle the boy and also that young lady is amazingly accurate I like watching videos where everyone is just having fun and being positive proving that it’s all about having fun in the end
Whether it be softball or baseball...hitting a ball is hitting a ball. It's all about seeing it and timing it. Every pitcher pitches different and different speeds. Never know what's going to be thrown at you. Softball is just as hard as baseball. Girls are hitting 60 + mph balls closer than boys...much shorter reaction time, got to think fast..
Your math is flawed there. They're hitting 60 mph at a closer distance but it evens out when you think about the fact Baseball is further distance but nearer to 100 mph. It ends up somewhat evening out when it comes to reaction time and thinking fast. Also the reason is because Baseball players are ofc going to have some problems hitting a softball, different dimensions, different speeds, etc.
I've coached both for years. Just requires a bit of adjusting for the boys to pick up the different angle and speed. One of the first times I caught a fastpitch softball player I was amazed at the differences. Took a minute or two to get comfortable with it. First time at any sport or change in the sport usually takes adjustment
I've hit balls off baseball pitchers and I've played baseball my whole life and learned how to pitch over hand. I play softball now cause im in highschool and i didn't think they'd let me play baseball but also some of my friends were in the program.
For everyone claiming "sexism" regarding guys being better than girls, it's just a fact of life that guys are biologically designed to be stronger/faster/etc than girls on average. If you think that girls are just as capable as guys, then a) let's stop segregating sports based on sex (and don't complain when the vast majority of women aren't able to out-perform the men) and b) check the world records in Olympic sports: the men's records are better than the women's in almost every competition.
For all you boys out there saying that the ball is what the matter is shouldn't it be easier to hit a BRIGHT YELLOW BALL that's bigger which mean it's easier to get a piece of it do stop making stupid excuses softball has the same pitches the size is different on the field but the softball fields smaller does that matter that should make easier for you guys but since you're all "big and bad" and like to make lame excuses go check Jennie finch throwing out the #1 hitter in the MLB and her breaking glass with her pitch but yet a MLB player couldn't!! Just think before you make some bad excuses about it being harder go play football if you're to scared to go up against a girl pitcher!!
Jay Yaboi Jennie Finch never faced the number One MLB hitter mortgage even face and will be hitter she faced a college player the best softball player in the world versus some average college kid I guarantee a softball player could not had a 90 mile per fastball then hit a 85 mile per curveball
Jay Yaboi Ahh, so maybe the fact that hitters from regular baseball struggle hitting a bigger ball suggests that there is a HUGE difference in ball movement. A traditional ball player never deals with a rising ball and rarely ever one with a "topspin". The ball movement is vastly different between the sports, both of which the players have to predict where the ball will end up. So taking a player from one sport to the other will always result in that person hitting miserably simply for the fact that they will try to judge the ball based on the experience from their sport. Its similar to saying that American Football players should find Rugby easy since the ball is bigger.
How come we never see college baseball players on RUclips pitching against softball players WHILE they are swinging a BBCOR 32 or more ounce bat, you know why? Because they can’t
Look at the size of the girls compared to the boys. At that age girls have hit their growth spurts and are more developed physically, and probably mentally. Give it 2 years and girls won't be able to compete. I remember playing ball at that age and their was a girl pitcher who was K'ing up guys easily. Next season everyone grew up and was mashing the ball of her.
I am a softball player, and no I'm not really that good but honestly it makes me kinda mad when I see all these boys saying that they're better than boys or whatever, we spend so much time practicing and we at least try. So don't say we aren't capable of what boys/baseball players can do
Now time for the softball players to hit the baseball pitching. Release point and distance are so much different. I’m just disappointed the guys didn’t throw to them. 😂
idk why ppl are saying us boys are salty, i went to a softball batting cage and hit off the 50 mph cage w ease.... for me its easy af to hit a softball and i dont think i wouldve struck out like these noobs.
it's ok. Our boy Cristian here must be a 13 year old boy starting to get frustrated by women! Aww Cristian, is your weak masculinity getting threatened? Do you need a tissue? smh miss me with that shit
@@cristianperez9626 that's what I'm sayin. Like I wanna see if they could hit some of my junk I could throw cus i guarantee that they wouldn't hit shit💀😂
For all you boys complaining that we should try to hit a fucking 70mph curve ball guess what honey we all ready do. Stop getting triggered because they did good! It's not sexist it's just seeing the difference between the 2 sports and showing they are different
I've coached both. Played bb through college. Like anything else it just takes a bit of adjustment. The distance is different and the ball movement is not the same as a bb coming in from 60'. Even warming up the pitcher from a coach's perspective is different. It would be something like lowering the basketball goal from 10' to 9'. It would take adjustment to get used to it
Why is everyone say, “Now let’s see a girl...” meaning girls can’t do anything else besides pitch? Lol, the sport isn’t just hitting, I think you guys are just jealous that that one pitched is better than that boy. Being honest, as a good softball player, that boy was terrible. I go to my brother’s games and they are a lot better. For the video, they were overreacting. Any gender could be good at a sport if they wanted to. That being said, the boy may have some trouble, but in the end, these sports have a similar concept, hit a ball with a bat.
I know right! Finally someone without a one-track mind! These boys were just bad, they were way behind it. You have to start your swing early if its faster, just like baseball. Sure the release point/plane are different but thats easy to get used to after 1 at bat at the most. Boys or girls can be good at either sport. Edit: You can also tell they were bad because they were swinging at a lot of balls which is part of the reason they didnt hit it too.
Chelsey'sClarity or they played baseball perhaps? Maybe even softball. The mechanics are far different so guys would slaughter girls in a basbeall game. Girls would have the edge in softball because of the different game play, but the guys have the ability to adapt
I'm not trying to hate on softball I love watching it on tv. I'm just saying although its easier to pitch overhand it is harder to hit for the most part
It's quite simple really. Both sports come at different angles of pitching and hitting and fielding aswell. Both are entirely different worlds so there is nothing to expect of a baseball player swinging against a softball player for the 1st time or vice versa. Both are hardwired to play their specific sport so they naturally cannot adjust. Given time though we might see a different outcome and perhaps one side would win as adjustments are made.
As a HS tennis player we used to play the varsity CIF ranked #3 girls softball team for fun once per year. It was like hitting a beach ball with a tennis racket. We won every year. This video is a joke
PianoKat seriously just stop being an a$$ ok. Softball and baseball are two different sports, I get that the boys are not used to softball pitching and the rules are different, but by saying girls have it easier because of whatever is stupid, because again two different sports. So stop being a such a butt hurt person and actually be open to excepting the fact that girls can actually be good at things. Ok, now I’m done.
I have two daughters, one in fast pitch softball, and this makes no sense. The style of pitch is different. You don't prove anything by making boys feel any less to girls. It's like making softball girls try to hit baseball's pitched at them by boys and then down talking them in front of a crowd. I understand that you want to prove to your daughter that they can be stronger and they can do anything a boy can. I get it. But your approach was wrong and your messing with kid's self esteem. Your an adult, start acting like one.
But thing is, softball is getting bashed no matter what, if we ended up hitting off base ball, people would say it was just by luck ect. It was just a fun game to try it, who knows maybe the girls did try to hit against the boys. The point was to show softball is harder than it looks, I mean can’t girls just do one thing to impress people with softball?
Thrown from a mound 43 feet away and traveling at speeds above 65 mph, Jenny Finch's pitch takes about the same time to reach home plate as a 95-mph fastball does from the standard baseball mound, 60' 6" away.
first of all get your head out of your ass and take your ego a step down. It's common sense that if you throw a softball from 60 feet away, it's going to be slow. THATS WHY we DONT play on a baseball field dumbass. Because if we did the game would be so easy! But guess what? your "what ifs" have no relevance because we don't play on bb fields
Props to her. We tried this in my league with the 15u teams and I was one of the hitters. Struck out on 5 pitches after fouling a couple off. The release point is weird and the ball rises so much. I honestly dont know how they hit it lol
9989812 wow...I need to look that up, I've always been told that there wasn't a rise ball in baseball...guess you learn something new everyday. Thank you.
I have been wanting a video like this to pop up because boys dont understand that softball is harder and they don't call it "soft" ball becaus egirls play it, and that's coming from a travel softball player
Im sorry but if any of u women could actually hit a 70mph+ curve in fastpitch well you would be playing for the florida gators, and basicly no one can throw a 70 mph curve considering the fastest pitch ever in womens fastpitch is 77mph, maybe a dozen girls in the world can throw a curve 70 mph that actually breaks
I used to watch the Raybestos Brakettes in Stratford, CT. I also had the privilege of being there for the only season of the Prindle Royals in Stratford. There isn't a boy on here who could have hit off of Debbie Day or most of the Brakettes' great pitchers. The ball was a blurr whizzing by.
😂Mechanics are completely different, of course boys are gonna swing under a softball pitch, their brain expects the ball to drop like most pitches they've ever seen.
It's amazing to me how I have seen so many baseball players hitting off of a softball pitcher but I have not seen a single softball pitcher hit off of a baseball pitcher, it's the delivery of the ball that makes it difficult to hit. If a softball hitter went up against a baseball pitcher she would struggle just as much. 95mph is pretty fast
Played baseball for years in juniors and those pitches in softball are verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry different i would not try those out in front of a camera lol
This video means so much to me and my softball team especially because at our school some of the boys are like “Girls shouldn’t be able to play any sports we play “ and we prove them wrong every day like this !WAY TO GO GIRL❤️
different release point, different distance, its alot different than baseball. not taking anything away from her but, there isnt many young players who could just come with no practice and hit a softball pitcher.
As a Softball player... I have experience We are all the same no matter what we are, who we are or what gender we are Some boys are hurt.... Some girls are hurt by the comments... We are all the same no matter what... Remember that!
Wow, I didn't see anywhere in these comments where they are impressed about the fact this pitcher is under 12 years old. She's amazingly accurate. I could care less about the fact that the boys couldn't hit the ball. Good job girl. Keep up the hard work!
Yeah for her being in 12u that was really good pitching, I looked like she had good speed and was pretty accurate

The swing mechanics are different too! Boys fully extended their arms because they have more time to get around the ball and girls keep theirs bent
T Jones that is why it is hard for men who play regular baseball to adjust
Not hard usually takes a baseball player a year or so to adjust some sooner
radar that is hard, theese kids dont have two years to hit for both teams. They play baseball so they dont need to leaen how to hit it that way
the girl could pitch! NICE JOB!

None of these boys batting are gonna hit many baseballs either. They drop their back elbow...you're gonna swing under everything.
They're swinging under everything because softball pitched rise due to the release point. Baseball players are used to it sinking

First kid had slow hands, and was swinging for the fences.
@MATTHEW BUTLER he definitely had slow hands. He just wasnt good at hitting he was trying to swing as hard as he could

Hence why you can be the best in your division and not both, males are just scientifically proven to have bigger bones, organs and muscle mass, while women have more fat deposits, wider hips, and narrow shoulders, a female softball player even with a lifetime of experience would not make it in the baseball realm, or male softball realm, it is not hate or sexism, it is pure facts so if you could please stop getting into wars about how men are salty over a girl beating you a boy, no one is salty, just tryna let you know you sound dense and ignorant because you’re basically implying a female can beat a male, which would not be the case if both were trained in the SAME sport.
You will eat those words.
I am a 13u pitcher that throws 70 mph from a major league mound. This definetly looks harder considering the fact that it is already hard to hit a 70 mph ball from 60ft 6in and to move it closer would be impossible to hit. Boys, softball is a whole different world to what we are used to seeing. It's harder I think.
Thank you.
Deepersteak why did u have to say u throw 70 from and “mlb” mound😂😂😂, out of hand doesn’t change
Deepersteak I have played soft ball for ever and it is totally different
Bravo to you. Not many people realize this. As a girl who plays softball, thank you!
^^ I meant thank you for actually stating this fact.
If people honestly think softball is a harder sport than idk what life is anymore
Different sports... don't mix
EDIT: btw I'm not trying to say that boys are better than girls, I'm just saying that the two sports are very different in multiple ways.
Mason Ran they aren't different at all, boys pitch differently that's the only thing different
LittleKay Cutie rubber is closer, fences are shorter, bases are closer, pitches move differently, bats are longer, different hitting mechanics. So just the pitching is different?
Kayla Murphy I'm just stating the obvious
LittleKay Cutie it's actually all about the angle of where the ball is let go
Mason Ran Your right its different have a softball player hit against a baseball pitcher guarantee she won't do well either
I like how at the end the narrator didn’t belittle the boy and also that young lady is amazingly accurate I like watching videos where everyone is just having fun and being positive proving that it’s all about having fun in the end
Whether it be softball or baseball...hitting a ball is hitting a ball. It's all about seeing it and timing it. Every pitcher pitches different and different speeds. Never know what's going to be thrown at you. Softball is just as hard as baseball. Girls are hitting 60 + mph balls closer than boys...much shorter reaction time, got to think fast..
Your math is flawed there. They're hitting 60 mph at a closer distance but it evens out when you think about the fact Baseball is further distance but nearer to 100 mph. It ends up somewhat evening out when it comes to reaction time and thinking fast. Also the reason is because Baseball players are ofc going to have some problems hitting a softball, different dimensions, different speeds, etc.
Teenage Dave Winfield would easily take her deep. He went from high school straight to MLB big leagues.
Okay, now switch.
Maddy. The local no looks like ur the triggered one here. Lmao
Maddy. The local In what way is he triggered?
@Maddy. The local no just defending our greater skilllll.. if that were me that ball is gone, these boys are like 8
There’s so many comments saying how there are guys hating on this video that I can’t find any of the actual ones anymore
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE MUSIC LMAO
I've coached both for years. Just requires a bit of adjusting for the boys to pick up the different angle and speed. One of the first times I caught a fastpitch softball player I was amazed at the differences. Took a minute or two to get comfortable with it. First time at any sport or change in the sport usually takes adjustment
Anyone else come down here to see the baseball players whining about how girls never hit off of a baseball pitcher?🙂
Popcornicornpop Pop to be fair are there any videos of a softball player trying to hit off of a high caliber baseball pitcher??
Meeee it is really funny 😄
I did. Got a line drive double off of a 75 mph fastball
I've hit balls off baseball pitchers and I've played baseball my whole life and learned how to pitch over hand. I play softball now cause im in highschool and i didn't think they'd let me play baseball but also some of my friends were in the program.
If he was throwing 75 he sucked idiot. That’s not an accomplishment. A good high school baseball pitcher will throw 85-90
For everyone claiming "sexism" regarding guys being better than girls, it's just a fact of life that guys are biologically designed to be stronger/faster/etc than girls on average. If you think that girls are just as capable as guys, then a) let's stop segregating sports based on sex (and don't complain when the vast majority of women aren't able to out-perform the men) and b) check the world records in Olympic sports: the men's records are better than the women's in almost every competition.
Lmao those boys are like 8 😂
So they took a kid who doesn’t know how to hit a baseball or softball and act like they struck out Brice Harper lmfao I can’t even with this video
For all you boys out there saying that the ball is what the matter is shouldn't it be easier to hit a BRIGHT YELLOW BALL that's bigger which mean it's easier to get a piece of it do stop making stupid excuses softball has the same pitches the size is different on the field but the softball fields smaller does that matter that should make easier for you guys but since you're all "big and bad" and like to make lame excuses go check Jennie finch throwing out the #1 hitter in the MLB and her breaking glass with her pitch but yet a MLB player couldn't!! Just think before you make some bad excuses about it being harder go play football if you're to scared to go up against a girl pitcher!!
Jay Yaboi Jennie Finch never faced the number One MLB hitter mortgage even face and will be hitter she faced a college player the best softball player in the world versus some average college kid I guarantee a softball player could not had a 90 mile per fastball then hit a 85 mile per curveball
Jay Yaboi
Ahh, so maybe the fact that hitters from regular baseball struggle hitting a bigger ball suggests that there is a HUGE difference in ball movement. A traditional ball player never deals with a rising ball and rarely ever one with a "topspin".
The ball movement is vastly different between the sports, both of which the players have to predict where the ball will end up. So taking a player from one sport to the other will always result in that person hitting miserably simply for the fact that they will try to judge the ball based on the experience from their sport.
Its similar to saying that American Football players should find Rugby easy since the ball is bigger.
I want to see a girl try to hit a 100 mph fastball. I guarantee that they won't hit it
Mark
How come we never see college baseball players on RUclips pitching against softball players WHILE they are swinging a BBCOR 32 or more ounce bat, you know why? Because they can’t
The girls have already hit puberty. Those boys are far from puberty.
These boys are literal jokes to the sport
Hey guys. Let’s get the worst hitter on the boys team and the best pitcher and see who wins.
It's all about TIMING! Give them enough practice and they will be smacking that softball all over the field!
EXACTLY JESUS CHIRST
Played 10 years in 4H fastpitch. Many of the guys went on to semi pro and pro back in the 80s. Fun stuff.
I love watching the old videos from the King and His Court from back then.
The commentator said boys drool when he's a boy
Cooper Anderson How do you assume
Cooper Anderson Or he could be a man
Cooper Anderson are u assuming his gender
your sooo right but he's just stating the obvious
Maybe he’s gay?
Look at the size of the girls compared to the boys. At that age girls have hit their growth spurts and are more developed physically, and probably mentally. Give it 2 years and girls won't be able to compete.
I remember playing ball at that age and their was a girl pitcher who was K'ing up guys easily. Next season everyone grew up and was mashing the ball of her.
lmao these baseball players really just got hella defensive, "well lets see a girl hit" like, and girls are the sensitive ones? #haveagoodday
PianoKat is it so hard for you to just not be negative? dang b
PianoKat is it so hard to let girls win at just one thing
😂 true
It’s okay for boys to be sensitive
Mystery Bond
That’s not equal rights if we let someone win because they have a disadvantage
"oakley you want some?" im cryingg
I am a softball player, and no I'm not really that good but honestly it makes me kinda mad when I see all these boys saying that they're better than boys or whatever, we spend so much time practicing and we at least try. So don't say we aren't capable of what boys/baseball players can do
Who said that? False enemies for feminists.
You see boys saying they are better than boys?
The only dislikes are from the boys who are too scared to admit that softball is actually as hard as baseball
Now time for the softball players to hit the baseball pitching. Release point and distance are so much different. I’m just disappointed the guys didn’t throw to them. 😂
idk why ppl are saying us boys are salty, i went to a softball batting cage and hit off the 50 mph cage w ease.... for me its easy af to hit a softball and i dont think i wouldve struck out like these noobs.
Honestly maybe they should have gotten some practice with the ball and how it works and moves.
I love seeing all the triggered boys in the comments 😂😂😂
Cristian Perez chill dude😂😂
it's ok. Our boy Cristian here must be a 13 year old boy starting to get frustrated by women! Aww Cristian, is your weak masculinity getting threatened? Do you need a tissue? smh miss me with that shit
@@cristianperez9626 that's what I'm sayin. Like I wanna see if they could hit some of my junk I could throw cus i guarantee that they wouldn't hit shit💀😂
ash moore honestly 💀💀
Let’s see you hit a 90 mph heater.
Hahaha I was literally singing along to the music in the background while watching this
For all you boys complaining that we should try to hit a fucking 70mph curve ball guess what honey we all ready do. Stop getting triggered because they did good! It's not sexist it's just seeing the difference between the 2 sports and showing they are different
Ava Bicknell also 10 sizes smaller
Ava Bicknell I am a boy and I say I agree with you
First of all no girl on this planet can throw a 70 mph curve. Yes, 70 fastball but no curve.
No one in womens fastpitch throws 70mph curveballs, trust me i would know, and whos we?
Ava Bicknell like you know anything about sports
One trained to play softball one trained to play baseball what does this prove nothing for both sides
Moana music at 0:10, ur welcome 👌
I've coached both. Played bb through college. Like anything else it just takes a bit of adjustment. The distance is different and the ball movement is not the same as a bb coming in from 60'. Even warming up the pitcher from a coach's perspective is different. It would be something like lowering the basketball goal from 10' to 9'. It would take adjustment to get used to it
Ok but have you seen Danny Duncan hit off a softball player lol
And kent Murphy
It's all about the timing. He's not used to that really long wind up. Give him a few more pitches and he'd have her pegged.
Jason Turner same goes for girls with baseball pitching too
Why is everyone say, “Now let’s see a girl...” meaning girls can’t do anything else besides pitch? Lol, the sport isn’t just hitting, I think you guys are just jealous that that one pitched is better than that boy. Being honest, as a good softball player, that boy was terrible. I go to my brother’s games and they are a lot better. For the video, they were overreacting. Any gender could be good at a sport if they wanted to. That being said, the boy may have some trouble, but in the end, these sports have a similar concept, hit a ball with a bat.
Fluffy Bird Ikr! Is reallly annoying!
I know right! Finally someone without a one-track mind! These boys were just bad, they were way behind it. You have to start your swing early if its faster, just like baseball. Sure the release point/plane are different but thats easy to get used to after 1 at bat at the most. Boys or girls can be good at either sport.
Edit: You can also tell they were bad because they were swinging at a lot of balls which is part of the reason they didnt hit it too.
sneakybill45 How so?
MasterKnightx because regular baseball and softball both have different pitching techniques
sneakybill45 I know that. Im saying thats easy to get used to. Try to read next time please. Release point = pitching technique
Let's just say theres a reason baseball players make hundreds of millions. And softball players don't.
I play softball and I am a pitcher and I throw 88 lets go girls lol
No you don’t no softball player throws 88
Frrrr😂😂😂
Yah but from 60 ft away that 88 turns into 70 and let’s be honest... ur exaggerating 88 so realistically ur def throwing 40-50
Lie Olympic softball pitcher only threw a high of 73
Gone forever Aaron Hernandez
Lmaooo those boys suck .. we had a game boys girls yesterday on our travel team. We won 14-0 but they ended it early we only played 2 innings lmao
I know for a fact you don’t play baseball by the content on your channel actually try to play baseball
TianoPCGamer The girls you played must of been pretty bad for you to beat them.
Chelsey'sClarity For real softball girls are freaking beasts.
Chelsey'sClarity or they played baseball perhaps? Maybe even softball. The mechanics are far different so guys would slaughter girls in a basbeall game. Girls would have the edge in softball because of the different game play, but the guys have the ability to adapt
N G awe thanks my dude lol
i don’t see a sing guy complaining
Lets see a boy pitch underhand like that girl Did. BOYS GOT IT EASY OVERHAND PITCH 😌.
itss_samantha itss_madison ok then try hitting overhand
Ping Pong Life why? Boys always think girls can't play. Let them prove it. Girls don't need to prove anything.
I'm not trying to hate on softball I love watching it on tv. I'm just saying although its easier to pitch overhand it is harder to hit for the most part
exactly like to pitch a 75 mph pitch it takes so much more hard work because you need to be stronger
That's why softball pitchers throw 75 and baseball pitches throw 90s
It's quite simple really. Both sports come at different angles of pitching and hitting and fielding aswell. Both are entirely different worlds so there is nothing to expect of a baseball player swinging against a softball player for the 1st time or vice versa. Both are hardwired to play their specific sport so they naturally cannot adjust. Given time though we might see a different outcome and perhaps one side would win as adjustments are made.
See boys it's not so easy now is it?😂😎and there's nothing soft about it either⚾💖⚾💖
Tessa Allen okay now lets see somd girls from softball come and hit off of baseball pitchers
there are girls who can? its not hard
Precious Vicente you talking about girla from sofball going agaisnt high caliber players ot girls who trained on baseball?
Tessa Allen yasssssssss
Those kids in the video suck too. And it’s pretty easy to hit a 75 mph softball pitch.
As a HS tennis player we used to play the varsity CIF ranked #3 girls softball team for fun once per year. It was like hitting a beach ball with a tennis racket. We won every year. This video is a joke
Now all the boys here are going to try to make excuses for themselves. Just admit it. Softball isn’t as easy as you think.
PianoKat I know that! But *softball* is NOT AS EASY AS YOU THINK!!! I know baseball is hard. I play with my brother *ALL THE TIME*
PianoKat all the cussing in the world will not change the fact at softball is harder than you think. The more you know
Mystery Bond thank you!!
PianoKat seriously just stop being an a$$ ok. Softball and baseball are two different sports, I get that the boys are not used to softball pitching and the rules are different, but by saying girls have it easier because of whatever is stupid, because again two different sports. So stop being a such a butt hurt person and actually be open to excepting the fact that girls can actually be good at things. Ok, now I’m done.
Kayna Kloke exactly
Not getting into argument about who is best. Underhand is a natural throw. Much less arm injuries.
I agree with your comment, the rotation of the girl's arm is unnatural. I'm not trying to start an argument, I'm just stating my opinion
I have two daughters, one in fast pitch softball, and this makes no sense. The style of pitch is different. You don't prove anything by making boys feel any less to girls. It's like making softball girls try to hit baseball's pitched at them by boys and then down talking them in front of a crowd. I understand that you want to prove to your daughter that they can be stronger and they can do anything a boy can. I get it. But your approach was wrong and your messing with kid's self esteem. Your an adult, start acting like one.
But thing is, softball is getting bashed no matter what, if we ended up hitting off base ball, people would say it was just by luck ect. It was just a fun game to try it, who knows maybe the girls did try to hit against the boys. The point was to show softball is harder than it looks, I mean can’t girls just do one thing to impress people with softball?
Honestly though, I didn’t even expect them to do anything. I don’t play softball but she seems pretty dang good.
Let’s see these girls try to hit a 70 mph curveball on the baseball field.
Hey, it's boys I always hear say that softball is easy. I never hear the girls say boys aren't real athletes or boys suck at real sports.
And i would like to see u hit off of Jennie finch😒
Thrown from a mound 43 feet away and traveling at speeds above 65 mph, Jenny Finch's pitch takes about the same time to reach home plate as a 95-mph fastball does from the standard baseball mound, 60' 6" away.
Jami Roberts I did the math and it's equivalent to 70 mph but that's good for softball
first of all get your head out of your ass and take your ego a step down. It's common sense that if you throw a softball from 60 feet away, it's going to be slow. THATS WHY we DONT play on a baseball field dumbass. Because if we did the game would be so easy! But guess what? your "what ifs" have no relevance because we don't play on bb fields
Props to her. We tried this in my league with the 15u teams and I was one of the hitters. Struck out on 5 pitches after fouling a couple off. The release point is weird and the ball rises so much. I honestly dont know how they hit it lol
They practice hitting a rising ball
move her back to 60 ft then have her pitch
why, because boys can't hang?
joedatkid...have them try and hit a rise ball
Alex Ba put an MLB pitcher in and they'll get killed at any distant because there's such thing as a submarine pitch in the MLB
9989812 wow...I need to look that up, I've always been told that there wasn't a rise ball in baseball...guess you learn something new everyday. Thank you.
just have the boys pitch underhanded
As a female american football player, I'm proud to say that these girls can throw faster than I can let's go girls!!! 😀👏💪
I would love to see a girl hit a 80 mph fastball and curveball
They do idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PJ Sladky we do 😂
We do😂
Ok give to me
we do all the time
I have been wanting a video like this to pop up because boys dont understand that softball is harder and they don't call it "soft" ball becaus egirls play it, and that's coming from a travel softball player
Im sorry but if any of u women could actually hit a 70mph+ curve in fastpitch well you would be playing for the florida gators, and basicly no one can throw a 70 mph curve considering the fastest pitch ever in womens fastpitch is 77mph, maybe a dozen girls in the world can throw a curve 70 mph that actually breaks
The Old Dominion song at the end❤
I used to watch the Raybestos Brakettes in Stratford, CT. I also had the privilege of being there for the only season of the Prindle Royals in Stratford. There isn't a boy on here who could have hit off of Debbie Day or most of the Brakettes' great pitchers. The ball was a blurr whizzing by.
I’m happy that they added a softball emoji 🥎
Could those boys possibly swing those bats any slower.
As my Jr. High gym teacher would say, "COME GET HIM!!!".
😂Mechanics are completely different, of course boys are gonna swing under a softball pitch, their brain expects the ball to drop like most pitches they've ever seen.
It's amazing to me how I have seen so many baseball players hitting off of a softball pitcher but I have not seen a single softball pitcher hit off of a baseball pitcher, it's the delivery of the ball that makes it difficult to hit. If a softball hitter went up against a baseball pitcher she would struggle just as much. 95mph is pretty fast
Well let me share this with you then... facebook.com/fastpitchsoftballvideos/videos/1344156542326800/
Played baseball for years in juniors and those pitches in softball are verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry different i would not try those out in front of a camera lol
This video means so much to me and my softball team especially because at our school some of the boys are like “Girls shouldn’t be able to play any sports we play “ and we prove them wrong every day like this !WAY TO GO GIRL❤️
Lol this don’t prove nothing lol
the girl is throwing as hard as a star middle schooler would throw and theres a huge difference in how far the mound is, no wonder he couldn't hit it
truth is that most 12-year-old pitchers can pitch just as good as that, it's the batters that had no idea what they were doing
different release point, different distance, its alot different than baseball. not taking anything away from her but, there isnt many young players who could just come with no practice and hit a softball pitcher.
As a Softball player... I have experience
We are all the same no matter what we are, who we are or what gender we are
Some boys are hurt....
Some girls are hurt by the comments...
We are all the same no matter what... Remember that!
Boys and girls are different in many ways. If you can't accept that, that's your problem not mine
