What would the greatest all time baseball line-up be, no DH.?
Practice! There are no short cuts. Make sure she has a bat that isn't too long or heavy for her. As she grows she will eventually use a bigger bat. But like I said, the only way to get quicker and better is just plain practice. Good luck.I would say reduce the weight of the bat and have her "choke up" a little bit, ie have her grip the bat a little higher. The
other thing is to make certain her batting stance is neutral. The tips of her shoes/toes should line up in a straight line directly to pitcher.
Please answer honestly,bottom of the ninth,2 runs down bases are loaded,?
Tell her to swing as soon as she sees the ball released. Also, there is a thing, I can't think of the name, my husband just bought one this week at Wal-Mart in the sporting goods section. It's a ball on a Velcro-rope type string and you attach it to a tree or pole and it's supposed to help them with their swing.Do you think baseball should get rid of the balk?
there are two things you can do. one is to have her relax with the bat on the shoulder until she sees the pitch coming. as the pitcher winds up have her get set and bring the bat up and bend her knees. This will allow for her to not be to tense at the plate. also in front of a mirror have her get in her batting stance and hold her to hands in front like if she was to clap her hands. have her pull her back had back as if she as to hold the bat. keeping her head still and looking at her stance in the mirror clap her hands together. this will help with mental memory as to the motion of the swing.Who is going to take it all this year in MLB 2007?
Get her a smaller/lighter bat or have her choke up. Too many people these days think you have to swing like you are gonna put it in the seats.Maybe if her bat speed is slow then she needs a ligher bat.
Who else here is excited to see Matsuzaka pitch his first MLB game?
You could either try swinging a lighter bat or also have her try choking up on a bat.Another technique I've seen for increasing bat speed is to take an actual bat and practice swinging it under water...like in a swimming pool.
Can you sprain/break your wrist by hitting a softball?
I did this because i was always hitting it to right field in baseball. First thing is pitch normal to her. Have her step when your hand comes back, so that her body will already be going around to meet the ball quicker. I am 13 doing this and i am already hitting 400 ft. (fenceline) homers. Another thing i did was i went into a faster pitching cage ( at some place like where they have putt-putt) than what people are throwing. This will definitely make her swing faster. I can swing when the ball is at the middle of the plate from the front of the box and still hit it to center after doing this.Can you win a baseball game on one pitch?
