We’re not taking the lower body out. It’s still engaged, it’s just dominating the swing. That’s why the barrel never releases. Feel the shoulders turn and let the barrel go. DM “HITTING” for real coaching. #baseball #hitting #mechanics

You’re flaring your ribs and pushing your hips in. That pulls your chest and shoulders away from the ball and creates that steep move. You don’t need to manipulate the barrel. You’re already in a good spot to swing from, so swing from it. DM “HITTING” for real coaching. #baseball

2028 @wcsBHSbaseball 1B/LHP Jake West (@jawest35) set the tone early against Ravenwood crushing a long two run HR that nearly hit a bird. Athletic 6’6-220lb build with big power upside. One to follow closely!

It’s controlled violence. You need intent, not just contact. When your miss hits are harder than your best swings before, you’re in a good spot. That’s where confidence comes from. You know they don’t have a pitch to get you out. DM “HITTING” for real coaching. #baseball

2028 @wcsRHSbaseball infielder Jonah Saken (@jonahsaken9) calls game with a missile over the left fielder to walk it off in extras. Fouled off 6 pitches with 2 strikes in another at-bat. Definitely a player for all colleges coaches to watch develop.

When I ask what you feel, it’s to build awareness. So when you go 0-3, it’s not panic, you know what went wrong and how to fix it. That’s the difference. You stay confident because you understand your swing. No guessing.

Leaders focus on results and ignore what’s underneath. Real leadership is taking the time to uncover what’s robbing your people of it and rebuilding it one step at a time.

You’re trying to do everything exactly how it’s said. That’s the issue. Hitting is interpretation. Make it yours. There’s no perfect way if it works. Be an athlete first, then layer in mechanics. If you get too mechanical, you lose it.

Hitting isn’t a written test. You’re not chasing a perfect swing, you’re building one that still works when you miss. If you’re strong, your miss hits should still be hit hard. That’s the goal.

Everyone tries to get on top of a rise ball. That’s the issue. You’re not swinging down to it, you’re swinging to a window above it. You’re making an educated guess where it finishes. DM “HITTING” for real coaching. #baseball #hitting #approach #softball #athletes

You were focused on your feet instead of what actually matters. Once we shifted your focus, your timing cleaned up right away. It’s about when you start, not what your feet are doing. And just because it feels tight doesn’t mean you’re late. #baseball #hitting #timing

In that spot, most hitters get passive. 0-2, first base open, they might walk you trying to set up a double play. I was still on heater, just in a window. If it showed up, I treated it like a fastball and drove it. #baseball #hitting #approach #baseballtraining #athletes
