You said it yourself. These pitches are hard to hit. There is no magic remedy to hit these pitches. When a pitcher is "on" who throws these type of pitches they are very hard to get base hits off of because the pitch is designed to induce a ground ball.
Also, keep in mind, the batter has maybe a second or two to make up his mind to swing or not.

No sir.
Hitters have a fraction of a second to pick up the ball, determine rotation , determine if its a ball or a strike and then launch the swing.
LESS than a second.
Nowhere near a second or two.
