That is unfortunate, though good luck with the baseball career. My parents were reminiscing on our days of breaking windows: a football, straight through the middle of a small window only just big enough to take it. A golf ball, bounced from the patio, cracking a window upstairs. And the porch window, broken by a xylophone beater.

A beater like this, mostly wool, surely. Surprising the force you can get into things, is all I'm saying.
