About: Batting (baseball)

An Entity of Type: Band, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In baseball, batting is the act of facing the opposing pitcher and trying to produce offense for one's team. A batter or hitter is a person whose turn it is to face the pitcher. The three main goals of batters are to become a baserunner, to drive runners home or to advance runners along the bases for others to drive home, but the techniques and strategies they use to do so vary. Hitting uses a motion that is virtually unique to baseball and its fellow bat-and-ball sports, one that is rarely used in other sports. Hitting is unique because it involves rotating in the horizontal plane of movement, unlike most sports movements which occur in the vertical plane.

  • La battuta nel baseball è considerata uno dei gesti atletici più complessi e difficili da eseguire che si conoscano, rappresenta un mix di movimenti in perfetta coordinazione e successione antecedenti al contatto con la palla, per poterla colpire nel modo migliore e con la massima forza possibile attraverso la mazza. Pur essendo un solo movimento di norma lo si suddivide in quattro fasi principali: attesa, passo (stride), giro di mazza (swing) e fase finale (Follow-through). (it)
  • 野球における打撃（だげき）またはバッティング（英: batting）とは、打者が相手投手の投球をバットで打つこと、およびその方法である。 (ja)
