This type of situational awareness data processing is something that all people have to do at some point in their lives (for example, meeting someone they don't know and figuring out what to say.), so there's no reason to think that S types wouldn't be able to do it. It does not involve thinking far into the future or past, or thinking too far into something the person has no direct experience of, which are the types of data processing that intuitive types would seem to do better at overall. The reaction times and physical abilities needed in baseball also argue pretty strongly for S types.
