Over 12,000 hits in the Big Leagues this year registered 100 MPH or higher exit velocity.
Roughly 1/3 of those were Home Runs.
This does not include batted balls that were outs and foul balls.
We actually have all the stats, but I don't think we are allowed to publish or post them.

Having an exit velocity over 100mph on a pitched ball means more to some of these kids then some of us parents can imagine. They feel just that little bit closer to the MLB players they admire, even if it is only for a minute. 
My son was just shy of 102mph at the 15u World Series this past summer, which isn't bad for a kid that was still 15 at the time. Had several north of 94mph. He was excited to see some of those balls, that he routinely hits hard be measured.
I know he has a plan to get even stronger over this winter, so we'll see what next year brings.
Only 13 home runs in the Big Leagues this year were hit with less than 90 mph exit velocity. All of those were in the 85-89 mph range. Looks like around 75% of all home runs were 100 mph or more.
The highest HR%, batted balls resulting in HR was in the 116-120 mph range.

How many hits were less than 100mph?Does it show what the average hits exit velocity is? I know that's a big number just having a hard time putting it in perspective .

About 42,000 total hits in MLB this season.
Just a reminder: Exit velocity + launch angle = HR
100 mph exit velocity at 0 degrees launch angle (level with the ground) can only go 50 feet. (for all you hitters hitting the ball into the L screen at hip level)

That causes pitcher injuries
