anyone else only able to hit as a lefty?
-
I can't hit with right handers to save my life and can barely hit with lefties but if feels better with a lefty. I think my only chance is an all lefty line up- I can't hit with righties against lefties so sounds like an all lefty lineup is my answer, anyone else in the same boat or just me?

Spend some time in custom practice against Kluber with only right hitting batters, you will get better just takes practice.

I’m the opposite. I for the life of me can’t hit lefty vs lefty

Switch hitters are your best friend when you have this problem, get guys like Mantle, Chipper, Posada, Carlson, Sandoval etc.

I see the ball better using lefties than Righties, Righting pitcher with a good slider is difficult to hit for me especially with 2 strikes but Lefty vs Lefty I can pick up the ball better.

I was about to say this. I am getting better, but still try to avoid lefty-lefty matchups

Are you left handed? I'm right handed and I still pick up Righty on Righty well enough, Lefty on Righty is pretty easy for me, but Lefty on Lefty is rough this year.

I'm ambidextrous, I truly can throw with both hands, my right is dominant but my left is more accurate and better for contact in life. The only right handed hitter I have had consistent success with meaning hitting over the "Mendoza" line is 97 Cal JR and either Jason Kendall. Hitting right handed just feels weird compared to left, I feel like I square the ball up better hitting from the left though as a team I'm still hitting under the Mendoza Lina lol but guys like Boggs, Brock, Cobb, Lofton, Tony G, I can hit pretty consistently with. Could it be their swings- I'm new to the game so not quite sure who has best swings or at least best swings for me, seems like those guys may be the type of swing I'm looking for? idk
