6:30 - 8:00 Baseball Shape - Fundamental - Snowflake Hitting

Dynamic Acuity A batter's best source of information, however, is the way the ball is spinning immediately after its release. How much spin a batter can distinguish, though, depends on his dynamic visual acuity, which is the ability to perceive moving objects. (An optometrist, on the other hand, measures a person's static visual acuity, which is the ability to perceive information in non moving objects, such as letters on a page. Moreover, a person's static visual acuity is not correlated with his dynamic visual acuity.) A batter needs excellent dynamic visual acuity to track and predict the flight of a baseball. Experienced athletes have better than average dynamic visual acuity, partly because athletes are selected for this ability and partly because it can be improved with training. Nonetheless, our survey of major-league hitters revealed considerable variation in their ability to see the spin on a pitch. Batters with good dynamic visual acuity can see the spin on the ball; those with poor dynamic visual acuity cannot. To get a feel for the range in dynamic visual acuity, consider that most of us can read the label on a phonograph record turning at 33 revolutions per minute, but this would be about the limit of our capabilities. The great Boston Red Sox hitter, Ted Williams, could read one turning at 78 revolutions per minutes, which is far beyond the dynamic visual acuity of the average person.
