Much can be gleaned by interacting with a baseball pitching machine. The best instruction taken from baseball or a softball pitching machine actually have nothing to do with baseball. Poised in front of the plate with balls flying by at 70 miles an hour offers itself to insight and awareness. Everyday a thousand things fly past every normal working stiff. Decisions are constantly being made every minute. Should I have decaf with artificial sweetener, should I scratch my nose before putting down the donut, should I call Teddy back, take the stairs or elevator, use blue ink or black ink, zip up my fly now or wait until I can duck into a closet, run to catch the cross light or wait? Facing baseballs tossed by a machine is a great practice and perfect metaphor for life.

A professional baseball player knows that every time he goes to the plate, the pitcher is going to try to get him out. That’s the nature of the sport and the way it is played. The batter doesn’t waste time griping about why the pitcher is throwing so hard, or why he’s making it hard to hit a homerun. The batter isn’t mad at the pitcher because he is throwing fast balls and change ups to try and fool him. The batter won’t feel sad because he thinks the pitcher hates him. It is the way the game is played, the objectives are clear and the positions well defined. A batter strikes out after swinging the bat at three balls in the strike zone. Is he angry at the man on the mound? Heck {no|darn no way|. In fact he probably admires the pitcher for his skill and is mad at himself for not doing better. The batter made his choices, to swing hard, to bunt or to watch the ball go by. If he grounds out or goes down swinging, he goes back to the dugout, disappointed, but knowing he will swing again. He doesn’t blame anyone else or make a bunch of excuses, or feel like the pitcher was being unfair. He swung away and he will live to play another day.

For most people life is not as black and white or as confrontational as baseball. Life is much more like facing a batting machine. The machine has no worries. It doesn’t care if the person with the bat is black, white, purple, tall, short, or shaped like a gourd. It just keeps throwing pitches. It doesn’t care if the batter zings it out of the park or fans the air.

That is the way the world is for most people. Things are coming at them a million miles an hour. Is it time to swing, bunt or duck? If they get hit by a pitch do they run out to the mound and pick a fight with the mechanical arm? No, they do not. It is not a malicious action. Life is just throwing things at them. They can spit and holler, argue and weep. It does no good, but they can do that if it comforts them. The real energy needs to go into stepping back to the plate and facing the next ball, watch it come in and decide whether to swing or pass.

Baseball has much to teach us all. Baseballs basic rules can become rules for living. Swing or pass, just don’t take it personal. In the game of life, we’re always in the box and the pitches just keep coming. That is what is cool about life is; you can just keep swinging.
