Bob,

I'm definitely no hitting expert...my kids were pitchers. However, when I used to Coach youth travel teams I would tell my hitters to focus on the ball coming out of the pitchers hand and let the bat do all the work. That is the same advice I was given by my college tennis coach....see the ball hit the opponents racket and let the racket do the work through a consistent swing. Golf is the same deal, keep your eyes on the ball and let the club do the work. There is no reason to over swing with todays equipment in either sport. If you let the bat do the work, there is little chance of overswinging and taking your head off the ball.

As always, JMO.
