re: Left Handed Pitchers

We hit .300 against LHP. That is not struggling.

Now do right handers...

The book on LSU was they struggled against lefties.

Left handlers generally hit better against righties, but the difference at the college level is not as clear cut for right handers vs left handed pitchers. That is why left handers are in such demand. Statistically, there are more right handed hitters, so you would think that being a left handed pitcher would be a disadvantage. However, anyone who has ever played baseball knows that every left handed kid that can throw at all gets a chance to pitch...
