I know there are many different hitting philosophy's and what may work for one player, may not not work for another. With that said, how do you teach/instill a Good Approach? Not just your standard choke up & spread your feet "two strike" approach...I'm referring to the beginning of the AB to the end.
Junior 247 is actually seeing the ball quite well right now and has had a very good start to his season. However, he's still susceptible to the occasional strikeout and tends to be in far too many two strike counts. In fact, his entire HS team is struggling putting the ball in play the last couple of games. They've faced a few pretty good pitchers, but nobody that should produce back to back double-digit team strikeouts! The coaching staff ran a practice today almost exclusively hitting according to my son. That's great, but like I said earlier...what can they do to help these kids with a better Approach? Thanks in advance!
