Description
Baseball is a sport of tremendous efforts. Players react in an instant; pitchers put their entire bodies into their throws, and batters hit balls that fly past them at 100 miles per hour (160 km/h). This volume looks at the roles of science and technology in this action-packed sport. Find out how the Magnus effect helps pitchers throw a curveball, learn about the training techniques and nutritional requirements of the professional players, and much more.
