Re: Hittiing zones or swing styles


Posted by: BMill (brumil2@hotmail.com) on Fri Jan 31 13:36:16 2003


Here is a question to anyone for analysis. If we divide the hitting zone into 4 areas (inside low, inside high, outside low, outside high) does the style of hitting, either linear or rotational lend itself to being more effective in hitting a particular zone and thus creating the weakness or strengths of each hitter? I know this seems like a very wordy question but it brings a second dimension to hitting techniques which is knowing your strengths and weaknesses when you step into the batters box. Most average hitters are two zone hitters. Your above average hitters are three zone hitters and one in a million can hit all four zones. If a person would examine the hitting style of the greatest hitters is it the ability to hit all zones or the ability to reconize which zones they hit the best and concentrating on their strengths? I guess it is a two part question.

Great question, could you guys (especially "girls fp") throw in something about position in the batter's box in trying to get to these pitches. I'm just going to sit back and enjoy this discussion.
