Re: Re: Re: rotational mechanics: hitting across path of ball?

>>> Hi Chuck,

Actually, I wasn't making an argument; I was asking a question. My question was whether a rotational swing leads to the barrel of the bat spending more/less time in the contact zone. I agree that there are more factors than just the azimuth angle; like you point out, there's also the elevation of the swing. I guess I'm trying to find out if there is a tradeoff between hitting for power and hitting for average, or whether a rotational hitter that generates greater batspeeed will also maximize percentage of times making solid contact. <<<

Hi Jacek & Chuck

Here are a couple posts and video clips from the Archives that addresses your topic.
