Book Synopsis The Baseball Player's Guide to Hitting Like a Pro by : Roy Lingster
Download or read book The Baseball Player's Guide to Hitting Like a Pro written by Roy Lingster and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-26 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every good hitter is fighting a battle... Do you know what yours is and how to turn it to your advantage on the field? 3 out of every 4 appearances at the plate result in an out. You probably know this... so why are you doubting your skills? Self-doubt is natural in any sport, but in baseball, it can be detrimental to getting out of a hitting slump -- yet it affects so many players -- pros and weekenders alike. Former Colorado Rockies pitcher Jason Marquis knew this only too well. "You're out on the mound not trusting your stuff, waiting for the next bad thing to happen, instead of going out there and grabbing the bull by the horns," he said. And the same issue affects hitters: as soon as you start to doubt yourself, your approach is shaken, and you're stuck in a cycle of misses. You're focusing on what you're doing wrong rather than what you can do to improve your game -- and that isn't going to help you. Perhaps you think you need to work on your mechanics. Perhaps you're doubting your fitness or worrying that you should be training more. But more likely than not, none of this is true. What needs fixing is not your technique: it's your attitude. And it's through attitude that the greats took their place in the league tables. Think of Ichiro Suzuki or Rod Carew, both noted for their unusual form... it's not mechanics that make a great hitter: it's what else is going on behind that swing. To hit like a pro, you need to think like a pro -- and that means mastering a specific mental attitude as well as your physical technique. Sound like a lot to handle? If you love the game, it's not so hard -- you just need some expert guidance... and you're about to get it. In The Baseball Player's Guide to Hitting Like a Pro, you'll find a clear guide to improving your hitting technique without focusing on mechanics alone. You'll discover: The 7 key elements needed to build a strong foundation for good hitting Exactly what you can learn from MLB heroes like Pete Rose and Joe Morgan Why bench-time may not be such a bad thing -- and how you can use it to your advantage How to look beyond the field to improve your attitude (and why you should) The reason why it isn't just top hitters you should be learning from -- and who you should be looking at instead Swing fundamentals broken down into key elements -- so you know exactly what it is you should be working on How to make technique changes that don't ruin improvements you've already made to your swing Why confidence is just as problematic as self-doubt -- and what you can do to mitigate it if you're on a streak The power of 'Situational Spirit' -- what it is, and how to harness its power A clear path out of your slump so you can start ranking again And much more. If you've fallen into a slump and you're doubting your skills as a hitter, don't despair. Even the top players have been there... The difference is that they know a secret. It won't always be easy, but if you recognize that, you're already halfway there: get ready to learn that secret, and watch your ranking improve -- even when it feels like it never will. If you're ready to master the true technique of the pros and elevate your swing, then scroll up and click "Add to Cart" right now.

Download or read book Secrets of the Short Game written by Phil Mickelson and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 50 yards and in, no golfer in history has demonstrated more talent, flair, creativity and precision, or generated more raw excitement, than Phil Mickelson. His ability with the sand wedge and putter are legendary not only among fans but his peers as well, and it is his skill with those clubs that is primarily responsible for his winning 34 tournaments on the PGA Tour, including three major championships. In his first-ever instruction book, Mickelson explains in detail how to master every phase of the short game. Mickelson maintains that any golfer of average ability can become a deadly short-game player by approaching the subject with a blend of science (proper mechanics and setup) and art (imagination and feel). Mickelson does a fine job explaining both; combining the wisdom of his great teachers with his own fertile imagination, cultivated from 34 years of experimentation, trial and error. No golfer can afford to miss out on Mickelson′s secrets and tips.

Book Synopsis You're the Umpire by : Wayne Stewart
Download or read book You're the Umpire written by Wayne Stewart and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you think you have what it takes to be a Major League umpire? Well, now you can test your knowledge of the game with Wayne Stewart’s You’re the Umpire. Divided into three sections, this unusual handbook, now in its second edition, offers "Routine Calls," which deal with scenarios and rules that typically come up in games and deal with clear cut rules—fair and foul, strike zone questions, and the like. The next section, "Basic Situations," deals with umpiring matters and rules that are just a bit more unusual or, for the casual fan, obscure. Interference and obstruction calls, for example, don’t come up too often, but they remain standard stuff involving rules that umps and many fans know quite well. In the final section, "Obscure Rules and Situations," you will be presented with what many baseball people call “knotty” problems. Here, you will be asked questions involving the complex infield fly rule and other arcane matters. This section, then, is the ultimate test of your umpiring skills and knowledge. Most of the situations in You’re the Umpire come from real games, but some scenarios are made up to illustrate specific points or rules. Test yourself against your friends or against the famously iconic baseball rulebook. It’s a challenge and it’s fun. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in sports—books about baseball, pro football, college football, pro and college basketball, hockey, or soccer, we have a book about your sport or your team.
