The pitch

In the third inning, we moved behind the plate and although the protective netting provides some distraction, it is a great angle for watching pitches. It also gives you a great idea of just how fast a pitched ball arrives at the plate and gives you an appreciation for what the batters do in being able to hit baseballs.
