If you are hooking the ball or hitting a lot of ground balls you are most likely rolling your wrist at contact. Try to have your bat perpendicular at contact so wrist roll will occur after contact. I’m referring to perpendicular to the field you are driving the ball. The shoulders guide the ball to left center, center, and right center and not the arms or hands. Additionally the front elbow leads the bat plane. Try to keep your front elbow bent and up during your swing (almost to the point the elbow is locked in the bent position). As a result your bat will be on pitch plane sooner and remain on pitch plane. Unfortunately for me I did not realize this until years after I stopped playing and began coaching my son. I recommend finding a slow motion video of any of the top mlb hitters today and see how they apply these principles as long as the pitch is inside or down the middle. A lot of players lose form when caught off balance on outside corner and stretch their arms to make contact.

What drills would you recommend for a player that is early or on their front leg too early? My 11 yr old is early hitting the ball 18 inch in front of the plate

@malcolmmiddle2029 7 лет назад

thank you Mr. Antonelli! This video was very helpful and has helped me hit in the gaps more too

@dylansagevick4890 7 лет назад

great vid and do you have any tips for better separation and a better lower half?

@AntonelliBaseball 7 лет назад

Thanks!! Check out our hitting videos in our playlist. We go in depth with separation and using the lower half. Good luck!!!

@nutmaster652 7 лет назад

technically not swinging at all would be the most effective way to stop hitting ground balls.

@AntonelliBaseball 7 лет назад

Haha very true! Thanks again for commenting and watching!

I get a lot of top spin line drives and the occasional slice. Do you think that's a timing issue or bat path issue?

@AntonelliBaseball 7 лет назад

My guess is usually bat path first. Timing sometimes, but probably mostly path

@specsbundy1392 7 лет назад

Try your hands parrallel to your rear shoulder 6 to 8 inches away from your body.

@frankg3rd1 6 лет назад

Ted Williams says ground balls and line drives are a good thing. Especially if you have speed !

@AntonelliBaseball 6 лет назад

Are you sure? Thanks for watching and commenting!

@frankg3rd1 6 лет назад

Absolutely ! He's quoted in his book The Science of Hitting regarding ground balls. You emphasis on bat path is absolutely right on !!!!

@frankg3rd1 6 лет назад

Antonelli Baseball. BTW....I never would wish for my son to hit a ground ball on his next at bat lol !

The league has changed since ted Williams played. Watch Josh Donaldson in his interview on mlb tv. Ground balls and line drives are called outs in the big leagues . #justsaynotogroundballs
