> Pull the ball every pitch? Thats crazy!I beleive that hitting oppo is just as imortant if not more important than pulling it, especially for a right handed hitter!Say the hit-and-run is on, if you hit the ball to right, the runner moves from first to third! You pull it, he stays at second.i could discuss this topic all day. keep it comin.

Hi Kevin,

A single to right will only move the batter from first to third. A well-hit fly might sacrifice the hitter, drive the runner in, or wind up in a home run, driving in two RBI's. The odds favor the latter.

Best,
