The Science of Hitting, with Saberist Morgan Ensberg
Very good Q&A:
Matt Lentzner: There seems to be two basic approaches to hitting. There are the “see the ball, hit the ball” types that go on pure reactions and those that “guess” and try to anticipate what the pitcher will throw. Which type of hitter were you?
Morgan Ensberg: I was a see it and hit it. But when I was going really badly, I changed into a guess hitter and that was not the correct move. It would have been better to just attack. Of course that is hindsight.
...
ML: Did you ever see a “dot” on a pitch and if so, which pitches did you see it on? What other, if any, visual clues were you able to pick up from a pitched baseball?
ME: I saw dots on sliders all the time. I could see seams tumble on changes. We see everything.
Interesting.
