Listen Can You Hear repparttar

Crack of

Bat?

The other day, as I watched my daughter take batting practice from her new batting coach, my eyes shifted to another batter that was being coached by another teacher. Her swings were slow, repparttar 133069 ball was glancing off her bat and trickling into repparttar 133070 batting screen. Her hips were not rotating and there was no power being generated from her swings.

The coach then took some time with her to show her some techniques that would help her in her quest to be a better hitter. They spoke for about 10 minutes. Or should I say repparttar 133071 coach spoke for 10 minutes and repparttar 133072 girl listened.

As I gazed back and forth between my daughter and this other girl I realized that after about 20 more minutes of hitting and talking with her coach that this girl ( we will call her this girl ) was smacking repparttar 133073 ball. Projectiles were streaming off her bat. That loud crack from her bat was reverberating in repparttar 133074 facility.

It dawned on me. That this is why I love this game so much. I loved that crack of repparttar 133075 bat. I loved hitting that ball so right. I loved it when repparttar 133076 ball whistled in repparttar 133077 air. Enjoying repparttar 133078 other aspects of repparttar 133079 game like base running, fielding, and throwing were great. But, I was deeply passionate about hitting. The supreme challenge was why I started playing this game and why I continue to enjoy watching it today.
