I always thought if you do directional and dont influence the direction, the ball will just go straight up the middle. Not true?

I would think not, unless you have 100% perfect timing. Otherwise, late swing ball goes somewhere between 2nd base & foul, early swing ball goes somewhere to the other side of 2nd base & foul, depending on how early or late.

Doesn’t seem to be. I get hits of every type all over the field not choosing a direction.
