Answer:

You see things happen much sooner than you hear them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light travels about a million times as fast as sound.

When the ball hits the bat , it will take about a million times longer to hear the crack of the bat than to see it.

What you see is almost instantaneous.

There will be a delay until you hear the sound.
