Nice job getting the players faces and the ball in the shots. You can increase your shutter speed even higher to freeze the ball. I would crop that last one down some

#1 the crop is awkward. If your going to cut off the legs do it above or below, but not at the joint. Watch your horizon as well.

#2 The focus looks like its at the fence.

#3 Nice to get the ball on the bat, not the easiest feat! A little faster shutter and might have compression on the ball which is even harder to get. focus looks a little off, back pivot foot looks sharpest.

The wide shots just don't do it for me.
