actually like dukes said, a golf swing is very similar to a baseball swing and can help your batting skills. 
Actually, they are not very similar at all. This is especially true for the 95% of players with a rotational swing, such as Dukes, as opposed to the 5% with linear swings, such as Ichiro, who hit off their front foot, and may explain some of the problems with his golf swing. But Dukes is enough of an athlete that just about anything he does that doesn't result in injury isn't going to hurt his baseball skills.
I enjoyed seeing this side of him.
