Just behind home plate
Yupper, i really think hitting is most girls choice because its more of a one on one thing. Its all that
hard work in the cage and net...and its going up against someone else who is at their best. Hitting
is more of a "I" succeeded thing. Not saying its a selfish thing at all, its just something a hitter
accomplishes and knows she just won a battle herself each time she gets a hit or homer.
When on defense and pitching, its more of a team win.

Oh, I 150% agree with this. When it comes to hitting, it's totally a one-on-one thing. I'll totally agree with something @ANNASDAD said. You can pitch a one or two-hit shutout. Definitely hard to do. And it feels like such a great accomplishment when it's against a team that has traditionally had your number. You can have such a great game defensively and make great spectacular catches. Or you can go to the plate and hit a memorable bomb or a bases-clearing double in a clutch situation against a pitcher that's had your number. I'm like @ANNASDAD's daughter and I'll pick offense every time.

To me, hitting is such a zen thing. I'm in the zone when I have my Power Carbon in my hands, staring down the pitcher hoping she makes a mistake I can pounce on like a Leopard hunting a Gazelle on the Saranghetti on one of those nature shows. It feels like nothing else when I hit that bomb or I drive a ball to right-center and clear the bases giving my team a win.
