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.
