Re: Pop Ups

> My son is 10 and his swing appears to be pretty good overall. However, he seems to hit a lot of short high pops to the pitcher or just past the infield. What is the likely cause of this? What can you reccomend to help prevent this?

Does he stride toward the pitcher?

I have found that some of my guys tend to slide under the ball, and pop it up, if they take too big of a stride. I have them either shorten up their stride or eliminate the stride entirely (and come with some other way of unloading the front foot).
