As I said once before, I talk to a lot of guys who have hit in the Big l
Leagues. A lot of them hit a couple of hundred or more home runs in the Majors, some of them still play and hit home runs prolifically, and a few are in the Hall of Fame.
Not a single one of them has said anything about any of this. In fact, if you spoke to them about it, everyone would say you are thinking too much. So ask them for advice and they keep it simple -- and as already was posted in this thread. Hit the ball hard -- consistently.
The guys who can hit just do it. The guys that can't are the ones worrying about this, fun though it might be to discuss.
