Episode notes
An aluminum bat or a composite bat which are basically used in amateur baseball college high school whatever is that they're hollow. When the ball hits something that's sort of hardened rigid sort of like a wood bat that ball gets squished. Some of it is taken up by compressing the wall of the bat which is very effectively returned back to the ball. It's more like a slap shot than it is because the bat itself is kind of like in a hockey stick the hockey the hockey stick bends and becomes more like a catapult.
