Cup of Upcoming Bouts
If HARRY GRAYSON
There have been a few unique batters, such as high-kicker Mel
Ott, who could swing the striding foot high and still stay in bal-
ance and time their swing* to meet the pitch. However, these ath-
letes did jt the hard way, and only a player of unusual talent can
use such actions with any degree of success.
The less upward and downward movement, the better chance
you have to swing level, so you should practice keeping your foot
close to the ground as you stride forward. You will notice in the
illustrations that the swing doesn’t start until the forward move-
ment of the striding foot is completed. This shows the importance
of a short stride in giving you a longer time to judge the flight of
the pitch before you must decide whether to swing at it.
Experienced coaches will advise you not to he a “guess hit-
ter,” and this is very good advice, but many outstanding batters
have aided themselves by learning what pitchers are likely to do in
certain situations. For instance, Honus Wagner found it easier to
get hits off a pitcher whose first pitch to him was a ball. Most
pitchers would concentrate on getting he second pitch in the strike
zone in order no to get too far behind in the ball and strike count,
so Wagner would be prepared to swing at that pitch and often
found it to his liking. The echo of hat meeting ball would produce
another base hit for the Hall of Fame hero.
