A batting aid to be worn on a thumb of a distal hand of a baseball player while gripping a handle of a baseball bat. The batting aid includes a thumb ring to secure the batting aid to the thumb, and a cushioning saddle integrated with the thumb ring. The saddle has a crest portion configured to engage a portion of the second metacarpal of the distal hand, also having at least one resiliently deformable flap configured to extend substantially along a middle portion of the second metacarpal bone of the distal hand. The batting aid minimizes the transmission of vibration and impact from the bat hitting a ball, thereby reducing pain and injury. The batting aid conforms to the bat handle and improves a player's grip on the bat. Because the resiliently deformable flap is self-aligning on the player's hand, the player can more easily concentrate on hitting pitched balls.
