My thougths:
My children play ball. My daughter's playing Softball and my son's playing Baseball.
I specialize in Gymnastics and I don't know much about baseball. I know how to play the game and keep score but that's about it. My husband used to play Baseball and was pretty good in the day. Now, he coaches the kids in Little League. I have never been a good hitter and I was of no help to my children practicing their skills.
That was the reason behind me wanting to read this book. Besides, I thought that my husband and the other baseball coaches may be able to learn a bit too.
So, I've read this book and I can't say I'm going to be the best hitter there is, but I have learned quite a bit. This book teaches the fundamentals and has so many great drills in here that will teach everyone a few things. Besides giving you drills to practice and the advantages and reasons for doing the drills, this book goes over problem solving and much more. I feel that this is a book that any parent and or baseball coach would like to read and would benefit from. My daughter and husband are reading this book and I will be recommending this to our Little League group of friends.
