Ballplayer can take a quick look at a fly ball and from its location in its velocity, nowhere to run in order to be there just in time to catch the ball. Of course, a sudden, unexpected gust of wind like for him. But that's only because he didn't take into account all the variables. There's an obvious reason why classical mechanics is intuitive. Humans and animals before them have been using it many times every day for survival. But no one ever used quantum mechanics before the 20th century. Quantum mechanics describes being so small that they are completely beyond the range of the human census. So it stands to reason that we did not evolve an intuition for the quantum world, the only way we can comprehend it by rewiring our intuitions with abstract mathematics. Fortunately, some odd reason we did evolve capacity for such rewiring
