Noname, Mike learned a lot about the swing after his playing days were over, but the experience he gained playing against the best pitchers in the world taught him a lot more than mechanics. He learned how to approach hitting when he stepped into the batters box, and you can't learn that out of a book. A few thousand AB's will teach you the most important aspect of hitting (the mental game). Never look down on a guy just because he was successful at what he did. What was Ted Williams only rule?
