Actually, many aspects of a golf swing do help baseball (I have played both seriously). Driving through the ball is KEY in both and that is a main benefit to playing the two sports together like Dukes.
I have too, but baseball much moreso than golf (although I was at one point down to a 6 handicap), and if you drive a baseball like a golf ball, you aren't going to get it much past the infield. The use of the legs is reversed, and if you have the arm extension you have in golf with a baseball swing, you're long and loopy are can't catch up to anything over 70 mph.
