Baseball - The Batting Order
Baseball - The Batting Order
The leadoff hitter may very well be one of the most important hitters in the game. Statistics show that when your leadoff, or number one hitter gets on base, your team is more likely to score in that inning than if he doesn't. So it is important that you have a leadoff hitter who can run fast, has a good eye at the plate and is a contact hitter. You don't want somebody who is always swinging for the fences. You want somebody with a good eye so that they can draw a lot of walks. You want somebody who can run fast so that they can beat out a lot of infield hits and maybe even stretch a single into a double. All of these things will contribute to him getting on base more often and having more chances to score runs.
