Part II -- SKILLS TO IMPROVE ONE'S PERFORMANCE by Ron Golden The following is an outline excerpt from HITTING

  • Grip - Two hands on the bat; choke-up as needed
  • Stance - Comfortable! Allow for good plate coverage
  • Stride - Step to Hit - do not Step and Hit
  • Swing - Compact: 'aggressive' chin on the front shoulder; eyes on the pitcher's release point
  • Follow Through - A natural rolling of the wrist; chin rests on the rear shoulder with bat fully extended
