> My biggest problem with using game clips to prove a point is that it is one pitch taken
out of game context. Game situation and count should dictate the type of swing one
takes. If I have a man on second, no outs and I'm in a no run pitcher's duel, its my job to
move the man to third. If I'm a skilled hitter, I'll take an inside out swing to ensure hitting
the ball to the right side In a different game situation, if I'm ahead in the count, I may wait
for an inside fastball and try to pull it using a more rotational style. As I've said before,
the minors of full of guys who try to pull everything but forgot how to play the game of
baseball. Game video clips can serve any style one wishes them to serve. jima

jima,

Good points. All situational factors go into each swing taken in a game. (inning, score,
pitchers pitch count, count on the hitter, number of outs, who'se on base, type of pitcher
pitching, type of hitter hitting, and many more)
