Think you have what it takes to hit a MLB fast ball? Swing batter! (http://www.exploratorium.edu/baseball/reactiontime.html)

I freakin love this! Mucho time waster.

The fastest I got was .06. Decided to pull a Seinfeld and quite while I'm ahead.

This is addictive. If I could hit as well in real life as I did during this test, I'd be the first girl in MBL.

For what I am sure will be hours of lost productivity. My best is .07.....

I actually got .01 and .03 (hitting a HR as it said), but was around .15 most of the time. That is a very addictive game!

My first try yielded a .18, saying I hit a "home run."

Second try: .02 - base hit?

What the hey?

It's Jessica's Simpson's fault. I knew I shouldn't have.

I was trying to anticipate the screen changing and clicked to fast and usually ended up being in front of the ball. You can call me Andruw Jones.

.02 and .04 were my best. I averaged around .20 most of the time. He he.

That is funny! :D

And accurate. Very Wilsonesque.

Yeah, it looks like I was mainly in the .16 range... You guys are all too quick.

Edit: Ok, tried a couple more times and got a .03. There's no way my reaction time is actually that fast, I probably just happened to click at the right time.

Me too. I figured I got a .03 because of luck more than my quick draw McGraw abilities.

My 2 year old little girl got .2 in what had to be a huge bit of luck. But hey, maybe she's what the Cubs need.
