Free-Swing batters life I’ll,“
arc (insiest to tool. It is for r
difficult. semi-times llllllOShllilig
.1 free-swinging lliilli‘l' lo shill . a
style and swing after being 0
guessed by the pitcher.
Choke batters. those who polo :lr
the bull rather than take a liculi‘vv
rut, are I’llllCll liunlcr to [till llwil
the free-swinger.
Editors of this style do not 5'" Iii
an effort to get distance to llnll‘
tlriics. Their position at the inn is
loose and it is not a difficult mim- -,~
for them to shift feet and sum:
in order to cross up the strategy of
the pitcher.
The free-swinger and choke
tcr in baseball are much like the
fighter with a. knockout punch in
either hand and the clever fellow
who is fast on his feet but lurid a.
punch.
Only a. very few fighters can ll»-
livcr a knockout punch without. Si i-
tlng. No batter ever knocked it borne
run without having a. solid airline
and a. healthy swing. The hatter
fast on his test lacks a punch be.
cause he is usually retreating, gn.
ing away, when be cuts at the ball.
It was Ed Delehanty, I belicie
who said the best way to make bass
hits was to‘ “hit
ain't." I have always been a. pupil oi!
that school or slugging.
As a. matter of fact, for about sit
years, realizing there were no hnil
players in the outfield bleachers or
on the outside of the fence. a, spec-
ialty of mine has been trying for
home runs.
My advice to any free-swinging
batter is not to be cheated out of
any of your cuts. Take a linalilzv
swing at every good ball pitched.
When you have your swing 30"
don't give the pitcher the chance of
steel fooling the umpire.
