Hitting Tip - 13
Posted on 11:49 by blogger
Bat speed can be increased by slightly turning the toe of the stride or front foot toward the back foot in a "pigeon toe" fashion. This action will encourage the heel of the stride foot to drop and thus assist the rotation of the hips. Make sure shoulders are still closed at stride foot strike.

Hitting Tip - 12
Posted on 10:21 by blogger
The back elbow should stay close to the body during the rotation phase of the swing. The hands should not prematurely move away from the body otherwise the hitter is "casting" causing a long swing, a hooking of the ball and an early rollover of the hands usually resulting in a weak ground ball to the pull side or a weak fly ball to the outfield.

Hitting Tip - 11

With the great hitters the back elbow, back hip and back knee stay connected and work together as if they were one. The hitter's hands lead the knob of the bat toward the inside of the baseball as the barrel follows creating a whipping action. See video of Albert Pujols above.
