In this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production, we look at one of the Joey Votto 2016 highlights -- hitting .400 in the second half. In this video, we look at the mechanics that can generate .400 batting average seasons, including BABIP (Batting Average on Balls in Play), Strikeouts, and Home Runs. The players that represent those qualities in today's game include Hanser Alberto, Nelson Cruz, and Yoan Moncada. Some historical seasons examined include Ted Williams 1941, Tony Gwynn 1994, and Chipper Jones 2008. In fact, there's a serious Ted Williams Joey Votto parallel we can draw. Of course, this study of half a season has been released in anticipation of the MLB 2020 season, wherein each team will play an MLB 60 game schedule. Shenanigans are possible. We could some Cody Bellinger .400 baseball, Mike Trout .400 baseball, or Christian Yelich .400 baseball. But the odds are still quite slim. Still, Joey Votto shows that it's still possible to hit .400 over a shortened stretch. The days of the .400 hitter might be gone, but we could see a glimpse of it if we're lucky in 2020. And if you want to see lucky, wait until you hear the tale of Billy Grabarkewitz. _______________________ Sam Miller - Why No One Hits .400: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/22356050/why-hit-400-ever-again Votto on Ted Williams: https://www.mlb.com/video/joey-votto-on-ted-williams-book-c2303614183 Maxo Bandcamp: https://maxoisnuts.bandcamp.com/ Maxo Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/maxoelectronic
