The closest thing we've found to one-stop shopping for baseball physics, this site catalogs more than a dozen resources from simple explanations to graphs that plot fly ball trajectories, to aticles, to Power Point presentations. There are also videos, experiments, and countless other activities. You'll find lots of resources for building lessons or demonstrating principles. Although not aesthetically pleasing, this content-rich website provides unlimited information about baseball and the history and science of the sport. Some of the interactives still require Flash; however, there is plenty of information to learn from on this site.
