It takes 396 milliseconds for a 100 mph fastball to reach home plate. In "Fastball," a new documentary from producer and Carnegie Mellon University Trustee Thomas Tull and Emmy Award-winning director Jonathan Hock, CMU neuroscientists and members of CMU’s BrainHub Timothy Verstynen and Michael J. Tarr explain what happens in a batter’s brain as a pitcher throws a fastball from the mound.
The documentary debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival.
