I am a lefty, though I bat right-handed... When I was a kid I pitched, played first, outfield and shortstop as well. Now it's mainly softball with some friends.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My dad used to do it when we were little, and I tried it when we played around in the back yard. Eventually, I got a bat and a real ball and played around to see if I could hit left-handed.
Anything over-handed, I do left-handed. Like throwing a ball or serving in tennis. Otherwise, right-handed, like writing and shaving.
I'm left handed, but my dad taught me to play guitar right-handed.
Left-handed pitchers get paid a lot of money to get left-handed guys out or else they wouldn't be in there. They feel confident going up against lefties. If you look at most lefties' numbers, typically they happen to be better against lefties than against righties. That's all it is.
I taught myself how to play when I was about 13. I'm a lefty.
I'm a left tackle. I like playing left tackle. That's my position. I think I can do it better than anybody.
I play on the left hand side, and I try to do the best I can.
I was the most powerful left-handed hitter in the Alameda area.
The first time I picked up a bat in a professional game, I hit a ball hard left-handed, and my first home run was so effortless, it surprised me.
I played baseball as a left-handed first baseman, though never as well as I did quarterbacking.
