Batting Practice - Cherished Tradition or Colossal Waste of Time?
I think it serves a purpose. I would like to see fans on the field shagging fly balls like Zack Hample.
Batting practice lasts 50 minutes for each team, and it involves infielders taking ground balls and outfielders chasing down fly balls. But despite its almost sacred place in the game, there is one little secret about batting practice: many players think it is a colossal waste of time, a mind-numbing, flaw-producing, strategically empty exercise.
