Randy, one of my readers, sent this baseball drill to me last week.  This is a great drill for baseball hitting training that doesn’t require a coaching PhD to figure out.Baseball Hitting Training

From Randy…
Great Drill–We call it the “Tennis Ball Drill”

Hitter stands in the batters’ box.
Partner stands on outside corner with a tennis ball in hand.
He will bound the ball just in front of the plate.
At the bounce, hitter will load-stride.
At the bounce, partner will yell “fastball” or “curve ball”
Hitter will hit the “fastball” on the way up.
Hitter will hit the “curve ball” on the way down.

This is a great drill to keep hands and weight back and it is one of our favorites.
