How to Hit a Home Run at a 30 Degree Angle

The strike zone is determined by the size of the player, right? Correct. So I love players like Altuve because no, he's not six, seven or however big judge judges on the Yankees and he popped home runs like the best of them. And so we can't ignore the value of technique, hand-eye coordination, response time, brain synapse. Am I going to swing at this pitch where I only have a fraction of a second to make that decision? You still want to swing mostly forward and get that bat speed on the ball as much as possible.
