A quick and basic guide to hitting
Do you want to learn how to become a better hitter in baseball? Maybe you are a coach of a youth baseball team and want to make sure you are giving your hitters the correct coaching cues and using the right language when it comes to communicating properly.
If so, check out these 5 quick helpful tips on how to become a better hitter in baseball and keep them handy this season in case you need to reference them!
- Work on your stance: Make sure your feet are in the right position, your back is straight and your hands are in the correct spot. The best place to keep your hands before you start your swing is near your back ear. This will help you generate power and create a consistent swing.
- Focus on your swing: Take time to analyze and practice your swing. Take the time to work your swing out and feel it in slow motion. Pay attention to your weight transfer, balance, and bat speed, as these will have an impact on the power and accuracy of how you hit the ball.
- Focus on the basics: Get familiar with the fundamentals of hitting and try to always keep things simply. Understand the different types of pitches, the strike zone, and how to read and react to the spin of the ball. Obviously, the more repetitions and practice you get, the better hitter you will become!
- Pay attention to the ball: Make sure to keep your eyes on the ball. This will help you pick up spin and track the ball better, helping you make better contact more consistently.
- Practice your timing: Make sure you are timing your swing correctly. This will help you make the most out of your swing and maximize your power.
