re: Twittter user says baseball is hardest sport to play because elite athletes “struggle” ?

They don't fail to hit it 70% of the time, they fail to get "a hit", meaning they don't get on base. That's two different things.

You think guys that get the bat on the ball, but can't get on base make it to MLB?

A good "Hitter" hits the ball where no one can catch it. You do that by hitting it into gaps.You hit it between infielders, or you hit it over the infield but in front of the outfield, or maybe down a foul line. That's the job..
