Bat Swing Distributions
One thing that is apparent is that swings that result in balls hit into play, and those that are foul balls or foul tip are based on similar swing speeds. This suggests it's just a matter of timing.
You can also see that the no-contact swings are often slower, especially in the case of Joey Gallo.
The speed numbers you see in the title is the average swing speed for the 90% fastest swings of each batter. This is to handle the presumed checked swings.
Bonus: Ohtani as a batter, and Ohtani as a pitcher. (click to embiggen)
