He is more likely to tee off on a 1-2 or 0-1 pitch than when he is ahead 2-0. Analysis off Dean's work and special tests by Sports Coliege indicated the reason for this. Ap- parently the batter realizes he must sharpen up when he is be- hind the count, and becomes more aIent, watches the bail more cane- fully and pays attention to the fundamentals off hitting. Not Sharp Enough In addition, the average batterj is not sharp enough when he first gets ta the plate, according to tests. The bitter who beans1 down from the first pitch can1 swing the odds in his favor. It was aiso indicated that the pitcher usually eases up siightly when ahead off the count. Since it is probably an unconsciaus move. pitchers shouid Iearn to bear down when on top off the batter. What happens when the aver- age batter swings and misses? Does he hit over or under the baîl? This is a report on inter- esting facts uneovered by Sports College's investigation into the scientiffic aspects off basebail. Hardball Swings over bal _ 72%7 Swings under bal __ 22% Baîl goes past end off bat - 6%17 When the pîtcher was tail, or had a three-quarter or over-arm delivery, the batter swung above the bail 90 % off the time. On slow to medium paced deliveries, the batter swung high on 65 % off his misses. The bail went past the end off bis bat 24% off bis swings. Conclusion- The batter shouid check carefully to see how he is missing the baIl and adjust bis swing accordingly. It was interesting ta note that few off the players interviewed had the faintest idea off how they usually missed the bail. Sofftball Swings under baîl - .--------84%lI Bail rarely went past end off bat except on slow balls. when tendency was to swing too soon. Conclusion: Softball players should hold bat higher than usu- al in ready-to-hit position. This will help them swing along the ball's line off flight, instead off across it. Since the sofftbali pitch- er releases the bail close ta the ground, it usually is travelling upward as it crosses the plate. The trajectory off the pitch in hardball is definitely downward. Players who make use off this information in their hitting prac- tice should effect a considerable improvement in their hitting. If she told you ber reai age ber birthday cake would be a fire hazard.
