Both my boys (12 and 15) have a hard time keeping the ball fair as a result of their pull swing.
Is there something that I can work on with them to get them to hit more straight away ?
thanks

He looks good from the back. You can tell more from the front view, but he finishes in good position. As long as he's not trying to pull an outside pitch, I'd leave him alone. Use tee work to teach him to hit an outside pitch. It is the same swing, you just make contact deeper in the strike zone. You should be able to draw an imaginary line through the sweet-spot of the bat to the spot you want to hit the ball to at contact, just set the tee there and bang away!quote:Originally posted by blexann:
First at bat of the season my son hits a fast ball for a single between 1st and 2nd. Please critique his swing. I will post more on Saturday.
