A careful reading of official Major League Baseball Rule 6.08(b) suggests that in this situation, the batter would be considered "hit by pitch", and would be eligible to advance to first base.

Did install it...but have an F1...so little need.

Played with it a little...checked menus and settings sort of thing...it's about like most of the software chronos, but does take bc into account when calculating average velocity.

Software provider claims within ~10fps of a chrony, so should be quite a bit better than guessing...and you don't have to record it...import to audacity, etc.

Needed to make a "utility" combustion / late Independence Day project. Below is a mockup using the exterior fittings and my tape. Keep in mind it's a coaxial.

Stay tuned for the anticlimactic results...

Heh, today at work we ere going to a forrest over 100km away with my boss. Well, hes related to me, and after driving about 15 minutes, he asked: "well Jake, you had birthday at saturday, didn't ya? Well, there's a hardware store like 10km away, how about we stop here and ill get you a birthday present, what would you like?" After like 2 seconds of thinking "7mm Allen key!" :D

I have now a new, great quality 7mm allen key for opening the suppressor of my 97k, perfect! :)
