Will a frozen softball fly harder when hit?

Yes, a frozen softball will generally fly harder when hit compared to a regular softball. The colder temperature makes the ball's material stiffer, which can enhance its energy transfer during contact with the bat. However, this increased stiffness can also lead to a higher risk of injury for the player hitting the ball, as the impact can be harsher. Overall, while a frozen softball may travel faster, it poses safety concerns.
