Blue Dog has certainly studied about vision and hitting. I hope we can all agree on that. Blue Dog, I was watching ESPN and they had racing on. I'm not into that but it did spark a thought. On the fuel injected... they have a series of lights down to green or go. The drivers then anticipate the green and so, they train to be the quickest to the leave the starting gate. Hitting is somewhat similar in that the pitcher gets to some point in the windup and the hitter anticipates a release and begins their timing. Would it then become a valid argument that a person could do the same with a machine pitched ball. Arrange some mechanism where the machine times the release of a ball as well as flashes some green light? You (Well you could, I teach Social Studies. )could measure distance and speed and essentially improve the quality of machine pitched hitting sessions. OR WOULD THIS???
Also, I'm sure that this could somehow transfer into T work or soft-toss.
Is this a valid argument or have I just jumped off of the deepend?
