    .02 - home run

    But this was when I was trying to anticipate it. The best I could do after the swing batter popped up was .11.

    Started around .20 got a base hit.

    Last try (my 3rd) i got .16 Home Run.

    Edit: got .1 on my last try...HR. Seems like everything under .20 is a HR.

    .11 was my fastest but I get .21 almost every time without trying to anticipate.

    edit

    .01 is my fastest time now.

    edit again.
