Coach I use this same drill. Also I use the ladder drill. Stand on a ladder and drop the baseball down inside , middle , away. Drop inside in front of the plate , middle over the heart and outside deep. The hitter is told they must make contact below the waist allowing the ball to drop as far as possible before hitting it.

This drill is outstanding. It forces players to #1 track the baseball all the way in. #2 if they are early they will never even make contact below the waist. And many times they will whiff totally.
