It is to say, however, that it's ludicrous to think that a truly gifted hitter is going to think much about whether his swing plane is 5 degrees up vs. 17 degrees down.
Of course the hitter isn't going to be thinking about that during a game because he will have already put in enough practice time to get the correct swing plane that "appears" so natural.
I would agree that hitters are born. Those hitters are Little League hitters though. The hitters that are playing in professional baseball have great talent/ability, but they "learned" how to make the most of it.
