It may have been my lucky day...got two BOB's in one game AND they won! Tried to get the faces but was almost laying down as it was! The settings where slightly different for the lefty compared to the righty by a little. I believe I even see a little bend in the Rt batter's bat!!

BOB is ok, but look up some of the threads on here where it's discussed and you'll see when you get BOB you almost always don't get eyes.

Another fraction of a second and the ball is outbound and the hitter is looking up to see where it's headed.

That's when you get they eyes and facial expressions..... and IMO, I'd rather have the eyes and expression.

Shots have good exposure and great colour!

Look how much the bat is bent in #2. Very interesting.

I like these BOB's a lot, more than most. It seems like that generally BOB shots mean no face. To be honest, as much fun as getting a good BOB shot is, the better shot usually comes about 1 second later. In that shot the head and face turn up to track the ball and the body is exploding out of the batter's box.
