That's so true. Anyone hitting even 200 in the majors is a very good hitter.
And anyone with doubts should take a few turns in a batting cage that's set for 90+. I've done it with predictable results. I was very happy with my one bit of audible contact out of 40-60 pitches. And that's with a machine that's somewhat predictable and not actively trying to make you miss. Totally changed my outlook on hitters while I was watching a game from the couch.
Not the same for the folks at Topps. Although I have to admit I've owned lots of those card and never noticed the mistake.
