To reinforce proper bat path to the ball.
Isolate the hands during the swinging motion.
Bats
6-10 Baseballs
Sock Screen / Fence
This is a more advanced drill that may not be effective with younger players.
Players can do this in pairs or in groups of three.
Have players find an area next to a screened fence or the side of a batting cage.
Players can set up as they would with regular soft toss, however, this time the coach/player tosses balls at a much quicker pace (one after another).
After the hitter has had 10-15 quality swings, get the players to switch.
The balls should be accurately tossed with little or no arc.
The pitcher should keep the delivery consistent so the hitter can find his/her timing.
Make sure hitter is striding and pivoting correctly, rotating hips, and throwing their hands straight to the ball
