If you said home plate, go stand in the corner. For subjects in motion, use AF-C (Auto Focus-Continuous) mode and focus on the runner, then track him as he runs towards the plate. You may have to toy with Matrix or center weighted metering for the best results. The fence and the crowd are fairly close, and the camera may shift focus when you don't want it to while in Matrix. If you use center weighted and focus on the runner's chest, this shouldn't be an issue.That's a 0.5% keeper rate, well below the 30% norm. If you are taking that many shots, you may want to re-evaluate the spray-n-pray shooting method and be more selective about your shots. The goal with getting more keepers is quality, not quantity.</blockquote>
