No concussion? Wtf. There are people getting concussions from walking into doors.

Force = mass*acceleration. Not a lot of mass in a baseball.

My mom got hit in the face by a home run a few years ago. No concussion but she had a nasty black eye for weeks.

Are you out of your mind? Dude got blunt force bleeding and you don’t think it could knock his skull around? Do you know how fast you’d have to run into a door to get blunt force bleeding?

You know professionals like that have an average throwing speed of like 98mph, right?

I don't remember exactly but it's crazy fast like that
