Will a heavier bat help me to get more power into the ball when I hit it?
|
|
A heavier bat is likely to have just the opposite effect. A far important factor is bat
speed. A lighter bat is likely to let you get to your maximum swing speed by the
time you connect. This will deliver far more energy to the ball than a heavier bat
will at a slower impact speed.

pattern has been established.

What position should my son or Daughter play?
|
Allow them to try all positions! Baseball acumen is usually determined by the 5
tools of a great ballplayer, but until a player is developed physically, it is not easy
to determine. All teams usually covet at least one versatile ballplayer for their team.
Players have earned pro contracts and college rooster spots because of their versatility.
