Steve, you need to increase your launch angle to clear the Paywall.

No paywall here and an interesting piece. Although not specifically about launch angles, Robert Adair’s book, The Physics of Baseball, is recommended for those interested in this sort of thing. The book has at least three editions each adding additional material. If interested, look for the third edition.

You get a handful of views per month. Exceed that and your exit velocity is 86.
