"The hardest thing to do in baseball is to hit a round baseball with a round bat, squarely" - Ted Williams Apparently those are two separate quotes. I remember hearing them in a combined form as "the hardest thing to do in sports is to hit a round ball with a round bat and hit it squarely". And he's probably right. Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I had 20/15 vision and I still pretty much sucked at hitting after I progressed to where guys were bringing some heat. It didn’t seem as difficult as that video makes it out to be but we weren’t facing 90 mph fastballs either. I suppose you have relatively a lot more time to process it if it’s only 70-80 mph. But I struggled more with curve balls. Quote Link to comment

Why not take 20-20 vision and give a hitter lens to enhance it by a bunch - assuming such ‘correction’ is scientifically possible? Just curious. No doubt it has been tried! lol Quote Link to comment
