The energy related to the movement is called "kinetic energy". Presumably, the moving Baseball would be above ground level, so it would also have gravitational potential energy - assuming you choose to define the ground level as zero.

When a baseball player throws a baseball he transfers kinetic energy from his body to kinetic energy in the ball Where does the baseball player get his kinetic energy from?
The kinetic energy comes from potential energy, which he got from ATP energy, which is produced through food. Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy after the muscles contract and relax. Sources: School science
Differentiate kinetic energy from potential energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy something has because it is moving. Potential energy is the energy something has because of its position or configuration.
Is kinetic energy the same as static energy?
No, Potential Energy is the energy of an object that has the potential to move while kinetic energy is the energy of an object at motion. Potential energy is defined by Mass * Gravity(9.81ms-2) * height(In meters) Kinetic energy is defined by (1/2)*Mass*Velocity2
How can a parked bus potential energy changes to kinetic energy?
When the bus starts moving its potential energy will change to kinetic energy.
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
A baseball flying through the air has kinetic energy because of its motion?
Kinetic and/or mechanical ((think outside the box))

Why is kinetic energy?
because there is kinetic energy.
Why is there kinetic energy?
because there is kinetic energy.
Where is kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is a energy through movement. When some thing moves, it is kinetic energy.
What is the kinetic energy is the energy of?
Kinetic energy is the energy a body has because of its motion.
Is kinetic energy a force or motion or energy?
Kinetic energy is energy of motion. The kinetic energy of an object is the energy it posses because of its motion.
How does an airplane flying have kinetic energy?
It has kinetic energy because it is moving. Just because it is in the air doesn't mean that it can't have kinetic energy.
Does thunder have kinetic energy?
It has kinetic energy because it is moving. Just because it is in the air doesn't mean that it can't have kinetic energy.
What is the property of kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion.
Is a lit match kinetic or potential energy?
I think it is kinetic energy because it is moving and moving energy is kinetic energy.
Is a match kinetic or potential energy?
I think it is kinetic energy because it is moving and moving energy is kinetic energy.
