Re: Re: rotational mechanics applied to fastpitch softball

wait until your daughter gets to college and that coaches tries to change her from a rotaoiomal hitter/1 The only issue I can't seem to resolve with using rotational mechanics is accounting for the fact that this methodology encourages a slight uppercut swing. This seems fine in baseball where the pitch is always traveling downwards, but in fastpitch, with a rise ball, an uppercut swing seriously limits the ability to coincidentally time both the bat speed and swing plane with the plane of the pitch and its velocity. This is especially a big issue at an elite men's level where many pitchers are strong enough to throw low rise balls.
