Subject: Physics lesson?

Pinholers,esp you Physics teachers- I keep hearing
Mike Krucoe (sp?) one of the baseball Giants
announcers say that a batted ball traveled further
because the pitcher threw it faster..so heres the
question, or experiment: suppose you set up a T (like
the little leaguers use) and set a baseball on it. You
use a machine to hit the ball so its struck with the
same force every time. Then you use a pitching machine
and set it so it throws at the same velocity every
time. Will the thrown ball,when hit by the bat, travel
further than the ball struck from the T? thanks Dan
