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

There was a show on ESPN several years ago called Sports Science or something like that. Based on all their testing and research, they said the hardest skill in sports was hitting Major League pitching.

I agree with the posters on the skill vs athleticism. We all have a fat buddy that is a scratch golfer or great pool player or can beat the pants off you at ping pong just standing there flat-footed and not moving, all while smoking and drinking.

They are skilled but they aren't athletic in terms of running, jumping, etc.
