Why Lefties Have the Advantage
    • Shorter Distance: The left-handed batter's box is physically closer to first base than the right-handed box.
    • Natural Momentum: The finish of a left-handed swing carries the batter's weight and momentum directly toward first base.
    • No Extra Pivot: Right-handed hitters must step across or pivot their back foot toward the field after swinging, wasting time before they can sprint.
