"Slow to fast" is shown here by this 7 year old. Are you "fast to fast" or "slow to fast?" Record your swing full speed. See if you look rushed, or if you have a slow movement/load/coil BEFORE you stride.

Young hitters often stride forward — and keep drifting after launch. 👎 Once the front heel hits (launch position), the head should stay put. Drifting after launch wrecks timing and kills bat speed = less power. Lock it in!

Hip hinge at launch (heel plant) is crucial. Some hitters struggle to create it during the stride—so the fix? Start in a hinged stance or hinge early like Harper. It sets you up for adjustability, power, and staying on plane.

Being able to have front knee adjustability is crucial to giving you a split second longer before releasing your barrel when you're caught off guard by an offspeed pitch. If a hitter lands with a straight front knee they will be very susceptible to offspeed pitches.

Trout's back foot doesn't turn towards the pitcher. If that's natural for a hitter to do that's great! BUT there are 3 things that are a must if they don't fully rotate their foot...Check out the full post on our FB page to find out what those are!

Inside pitch? Tight Turns = Homeruns to left 😊 You can't hit an inside pitch by throwing your hands to it. The back elbow has to work closer to the body than if it were an outside pitch.

This just makes me really sad. How do we stop this type of thing from happening? Parents. Please. Think about your kids. They are watching everything you do and say. This guy should never be allowed on a field again let alone coaching young athletes.

Notice how close Betts is right before he starts moving forward. By the end of his stride he has left his hands back to get 2 a good stretched launch position. If your hands are close in the beginning, you need to "step away" from them when you go forward.

Make sure you understand that when great hitters explain their swing or what they mechanically are thinking, sometimes they are different from what they actually do. This is called "Feel vs Real." Check out our post for more details on this...

1-hand vs. 2-hand finish? The only real difference was pitch height: ⚾ 84% of high pitches = 2-hand ⚾ 87% of low pitches = 1-hand Moral: Don’t force a finish. Comfort & swing quality matter more. Finish is a result, not the cause. Let hitters be versatile.

What do you love about Correa’s swing? He’s very simple with great repeatable movements. 👏 good example of a simple swing for young hitter’s.

Take this advice from Dansby and apply it to your upcoming season! Servant leaders have the biggest positive impact on a team verses someone who’s just good at bossing people around. 👌
