I'm left-handed and can't even write legibly or do any kind of detailed work with my right hand.

However, I golf as a right-hander and also play pool as a right hander. I find it very difficult to switch the other way.

Yet in baseball, I bat left-handed and yet cannot hit the ball at all batting right-handed.

Very strange.

I'm leftie in writing and throwing, but a righty batting, hockey, or anything else that's swung with two hands.

It's a true rarity to find any MLB baseball player that throws left and bats right - a few pitchers is all - and all suck at batting.

Longtime ago I read something about this and recall that the brain doesn't process the approaching baseball quick enough.
