A baseball, hit 2 feet above the ground, leaves the bat at an angle of 41° and is caught by an outfielder 6.5 feet above the ground and 255 feet from home plate. Neglecting air resistance, what was the initial speed of the ball?

Use g=32   ft/sec2 as the acceleration of gravity. Your answer should be in feet per second.
