Flightpath

Jack,

Maybe this has been discussed before on your site, but I have been discussing this with some people on another site. It's in regard to the flightpath of the barrel of the bat, in relationship to the angle of the incoming ball.

I am of the belief that the barrel should be "inline" with the angle of the ball (ball moving downward at approx. 11 degrees; bat moving upward at approx. 11 degrees) just before and at contact. The more the bat strays from this "inline" approach (up or down; moving "across" the ball's flightpath), the more precision required.

What are your thoughts on this? Anyone else feel free to comment as well.
