My 10 year old just had his first game of the season. We've been drilling him.

I would suggest the author of this video check out "rotational hitting" or look up Manny Ramiez swing mechanics on youtube. There are several slo mo shots of MLB hitters, none of them do what this guy suggests. This swing may work, but no MLB hitters use these mechanics. Slo mo video does not lie.

Sorry for the long ass story yall, but it's the only way to get my point across. That lefty was me guys. Once i changed MY APPROACH on the outside pitch, a started to rake. I hurt my arm later that season (for the third time in my very brief career) and watched my four D-I offers disappear. But guys, hitting is so dependent on the mental side of the ball. Pay attention to that and just have fun! It's over before you know it. Good luck fellas

So Les walked up to the outside corner of the plate and stood on it. "Right here" he said "Hit the outside pitch right here." Then he asked "Would you be unhappy if you hit a high and outside pitch over the fence in right field?" Of course the lefty said that he'd be just giddy w/ excitement if he did that. Les said "Hit the outside pitch when it comes to the plate, and hit it hard. Wherever it goes, well, whatever."

Les Norman is the best hitting instructor i've ever met. He operates out of Lee's Summit, MO. He worked w/ a guy who was havin trouble w/ outside pitches. He asked the lefty "Where do you wanna hit this outside pitch?" The kid automatically pointed to left field. "Wrong" said Les, "Where do you wanna hit this outside pitch?" Now the kid didn't kno what the hell to say, and assumed the "deer in the headlight'" look.

Have you ever hit a ball 480 ft away from home plate with a wood bat? I don't think so... And believe me, that's not the right way... just to let you know, i've done that many times. good luck ;)

You are baseball retarded. That's a fact.

[christianslade]

This is the most stupid way to hit a ball, I'd like to see this technic in a real game recorded on video... if this guy's mechanics work, why he didn't became a famous and successfuly player?

[alexatebradley]

many high class hitting coaches tell those learning under them to throw their hands out to to push an outside pitch (usually high and outside) to right field, its not true you "never" want to do that, its true that you get more power on pulling a pitch but if you try to pull an outside pitch like that you'll hit it at the end of the bat more than likely back to the pitcher

[gillieman760]

never throw your hands!!! you keep the rotational swing , but you adjust your contact point. Learn the mechanics before you post uninformed comments.
