The purposes of this study were to gain knowledge to improve individual tactics through how players acquire practical wisdom by focusing on experience and reflection while providing narrative cases on practical wisdom of individual tactics of baseball batting. We conducted an interview with one college baseball player. After reviewing the case, we found the following contents.
1) By repeatedly conducting the process to collect failure cases from game experiences and then applying the lessons of failure to the next playing opportunity, the player will be able to update his playing image immediately during the game. Thus, it is required that the objective of learning is to promote the above-mentioned process by reflecting on failure experiences.
2) With the corrective intention of technical skills, a player becomes aware of needs for a series of processes to achieve a stable technical capability such as realization of change in skill, cause assessment, and selection for correction method. Thus, it is required that the objective of learning is to identify where the issue lies in the series of processes.
3) By aiming to play against and conquer pitchers with individual tactics as a player never experienced before, the player attempts to acquire new tactical variations and the necessary technical skills. Thus, for obtaining new variations of individual tactics, it is recommended that players need to gain more experiences to play against pitchers with individual tactics as never experienced before.
