Ted Williams is the man December 2, 2007
Nice read, talks about a ton of ideas for hitting better, have used some of them, and have noticed improved power to the opposite field.
Ted Williams was the second best player of all time, anytime he speaks or writes about baseball, it's in your best interest to soak up the info.
 Should be the ART of hitting September 26, 2007
- I think this should be the first book on hitting any baseball player reads.
- Should be "The ART of hitting." Very little, if any, science in this book. Mostly stories and tips from Ted Williams.
- Ted Williams makes a great point that 50% of hitting is from the neck up. Many players are physically capable of hitting a baseball but lack the confidence to do it in a game. Mr. Williams gives some very good information on developing game confidence.
swing away July 23, 2007

having been out of baseball for years, getting back into the game in a men's senior league, i have completely deconstructed my slowpitch softball swing, and can pick up pitches and hit the ball the way i want to. for a young player, this book could be invaluable. i pick it up and reinforce what ive learned by reading sections again and again. plus ted williams' anticdotes as both a player and a manager are a fun way to relive the game the way it was.
A ball player's must read. June 27, 2007
This is a book that you can read just to enjoy a bit of baseball history. Or to read deeper into and look into the mind of one baseballs greatest hitters of all time. It really dwells into the mental side of hitting which is probably the most often overlooked, but is just as important as the physical side of hitting. If there was ever a mandatory reading list for hitting this would be number 1 on a very short list.
