Hitting Low in the Zone: A New Baseball Paradigm

Hitting Low in the Zone: A New Baseball Paradigm

Hitting Low in the Zone is a game-changer that blends entertaining stories from Homer Bush's playing days and coaching experience with scientific data and swing mechanics to demonstrate how hitters can have consistent success at the plate off pitches that settle low in the hitting zone. The Hitting Low in the Zone philosophy, if properly implemented as a team model, can help build better ball clubs with more elite players, can increase run production, and ultimately improves a team's chances of making the postseason. Homer-through playing the game, working in the financial industry, and later becoming a hitting coach-feels strongly that he has found a way to bridge the gap and find harmony between the convoluted numbers side of baseball and the players on the field. Major league baseball teams are constantly seeking to find consistent offensive production. There's no secret that the ability to score runs is down, but at the same time statisticians are finding that the strike zone is extending lower as well. If batters (and teams) want to increase run production, they need to understand not only how to mechanically hit lower pitches but also why those pitches can be consistently put into play with success. Through experience, research and commonsense, Hitting Low in the Zone details: (1) How the greatest opportunities for hitters exist in the lowest part of the hitting zone (which is where the majority of pitches are thrown); (2) The hitters with the highest batting averages are successful in the lowest part of the zone; and (3) In order for hitters to have consistent success, they must have a specific swing path to accommodate low pitches.
