✍️ The article discusses the Philadelphia Phillies' hitters, particularly Bryce Harper, and their decrease in first-pitch swing rates. The team's overall swing rate has also decreased, with some players showing significant drops.
👉 Bryce Harper's first-pitch swing rate has decreased by 9.7% this year 👉 The Phillies' overall swing rate has decreased by 3.1% 👉 Several Phillies players have seen significant drops in their first-pitch swing rates 👉 The team's hitters may be adopting a more patient approach, taking fewer swings at the first pitch 👉 The Phillies were less likely to get pitches in the zone last year, so taking fewer swings at the first pitch may be a strategy to get more pitches in the zone
