Paul O'Neill

Swing and a Hit

Nine Innings of What Baseball Taught Me

Ebook (EPUB Format)

In SWING AND A HIT, O'Neill elaborates on his ten hitting principles, memories and lessons-one element of hitting for each inning (and one extra) of a baseball game. Here, O'Neill, with his peppery temperament, describes what he did as a hitter, how he adjusted to pitchers, how he shored up his confidence, how he battled with umpires and (water coolers) and what advice he would give to current hitters.
