> I've heard of a technique where the hitter finds a nice spot of green grass between him and the pitcher. He just looks at that spot until the pitcher is about to release, then he shifts his eyes up to the release point. I haven't tried this, but the source is very reliable to me.

Erik,

I think you are making it to hard.

It is not hard to see a pitcher start his arm action or when his arm goes back. It is not hard to see when the arm comes forward and you anticipate the release. You will not be 'fooled' by the motion. It doesn't matter what the pitcher does becuase it isn't a focus point. You are only using the general motion for both rythym and timing. He could start and stop for all it matters.

You were looking for the best way to track the ball and I have given you my answer. It has to with tracking ahead, staying ahead and anticipating the release. This slows everything down and makes rythym and timing 100% better. Using this method is superior to anything.
