Hey, Batter, Batter!

Suppose that a pitcher could throw a baseball at 90% of the speed of light.

What happens next might surprise you.

All these may years I've been trying to get to first base, and I always get burned. Now I know why. It's the pitcher's fault.

Amusing. I thought I'd be reading about time dilation or some such.

Here's a similar scenario from the viewpoint of the pitcher... or perhaps the viewpoint of the 0.9c ball... or perhaps from no viewpoint at all.
