Danny Gallagher, Montreal Expos historian: Hitting is the one of the most challenging acts in all of baseball. It's almost a fear going to the plate, a fear of the unknown. It can be an albatross to get a hit facing the arsenal a pitcher has in his repertoire. The math says a hitter may get one hit out of every four plate appearances. If you hit .300, you're deemed as faring out pretty darn good. You went 1-for-3, you went out twice. To help hitters out, whether they are professionals or amateurs, Roy Lingster of the Netherlands has written an interesting book called The Baseball Players' Guide to Hitting like a Pro: Science based Techniques to Master the Fundamentals and Mental Side of Hitting. Check it out. You will get advice that will help you.

Chuck W.: Emphasizes the mental side of hitting rather than mechanics, which is a breath of fresh air these days. Good advise on avoiding and breaking out of slumps.
