Baseball Hitting

It has been said that hitting a baseball well is the single most difficult sports skill to master. Even in the pro’s, the best hitters only get a hit 3 out of every 10 at bats. One definite thing about hitting is that to do it well requires knowing the proper mechanics involved and practice, practice, practice. Some general principals of hitting are to study the pitcher (get a feel for his speed, does he have curve/change-up, does he do anything different when he throws it, etc.). Keep your eyes on the ball through contact. Know the strike zone and get a good pitch to hit. Know the situation (count, score, runners, outs) and what it calls for. Be aggressive, the hitter should load and stride on every pitch and be up there thinking hit, hit, hit, so that he is ready to explode with the hips and hands if it is a strike. If the pitch is not a strike don’t swing.
