Baseball Hitting Drills
Two Tee Drill
Using a batting tee allows you to isolate the aspect of your swing that you want to work on. In this drill, batters have an opportunity to practice hitting the ball out in front of the body.
Split Hand Drill
When holding a baseball bat, your dominant hand should go on top. This drill helps batter feel his top hand when he swings.
Swing and Sprint Drill
This is a fantastic running drill that helps players learn to get out of the box quickly, emphasizing the acceleration phase of the sprint to first.
See The Ball
Using a batting tee allows you to isolate the aspect of your swing that you want to work on. This drill allows the batter to work on keeping his head still.
Grounders Only Tee Ball
In this scrimmage variation, using the tee speeds up the pace of the game and gives your team more repetitions in a shorter time. Hitters can work on their swing mechanics, while fielders can practice fielding ground balls and throwing out runners.
Bunt Visualization
The object of bunting is to deaden the ball as it hits your bat, causing the ball to roll away from the catcher and toward either the first or third baseman. But you don't want the ball to roll too quickly! This hitting drill helps players develop proper bunting technique and timing.
String Drill
This drill is great for batters who over-stride or step out on their swing. The string forces them to get used to taking a good, short stride.
Top 5 At-Home Baseball Drills
Looking for at-home baseball drills? Here are our top 5. Each one can be done in your back yard or even indoors, solo or with a partner.
Drop Ball Drill
This drill simulates a high speed fastball to the batter and really stresses the importance of getting the hands moving in order to hit that ball.
Pinball
Use this drill to reinforce to players to stay on top of the ball through their swing, as well as improving their ability to hit under pressure.
Back Toss Drill
Here's a great drill that helps train vision and ball tracking, while teaching hitters to keep their hands inside the ball.
Basketball Power Drill
This drill trains hitters to swing through the point of contact and hit for more power. Try creating a progression from your lightest ball to your heaviest (i.e.. volleyball, soccer ball, basketball). Then have the hitter take 5 swings with a normal baseball and feel the difference.
