I was trying to see if anybody posted this in a later date. So I wouldnt hafta ask on here, but I had no luck. So sry if this has been explain or answered before. MY question is when your player looks at a ball or strike in smallball is there a training skill that determines a batters eye? I mean is that Contact Skill or what? I see alot of my players just watching strikes.

The worse your hitter is in overall batting, the more likely it is he'll take a ball. Once he gets trained in batting a bit, he wont be taking those balls anymore.

I wish my players would look at a ball once in awhile. They swing at everything!! Sad and miss most of the time. LOL

But chippy gave you the answer........once you get more bat training............all three bat skills, they will swing at everything.
