[QUOTE="First Tee Frog, post: 3160202, member: 5408"] And you think our coaches tell players to get into 2 strike counts? Of course not. They tell them to be selective early in the count. Look for one specific pitch and if they get it then swing but don’t swing at a pitchers pitch. Porter’s home run against Louisiana was first pitch. They aren’t told not to swing just for the sake of not swinging. There is a difference in a pitcher’s strike and a good pitch to hit. Ya don’t swing at a pitcher’s strike. Just because it’s in the zone doesn’t make it a good pitch to hit. The problem wasn’t that we worked counts or that we were too patient or that we were coached to take strikes. It’s that we just had too many guys who aren’t great hitters. Most of the guys that played everyday last year and this year improved or at least maintained their production. Boyers was the only one who didn’t progress as his BA and OB dipped but his slugging was up [/QUOTE]
