A member of our BioForce family Zach asks if he should swing at a 3-2 pitch that isn't that great, but the umpire might call it a strike.
Zach, great question. One thing it tells me you have been studying the umpire's strike zone that day. That's one of the first steps to being a great hitter.
The general answer to your question is yes, you should swing if you feel it will be a strike today....tomorrow, who knows if it will be a strike with another umpire.
How about those days when the strike zone is huge? My advice is jump on the first decent pitch you see. Try not to get too behind on the count.
I have a question for all of you..
What is your approach when you come up to bat? What are you thinking about? What's you plan?
I'd like to hear from all of you, and then I'll give my 2 cents on the subject of having a plan when coming up to bat.
Until next time...
Train like a champion today!

To be honest I used be to t imid at the plate so now I just for the first good pitch in the strike zone. But I it's a certain situation like 2out and A gut on third I'm thinking contact th whole time. especialy when the guy is super acurate on the mound.
