waiting for a first strike

The high school coach of my son, likes to have their kids batting on one strike count. I believe that if a batter has shown discipline by swinging most of the time at good pitches, he should get the green light when at bat unless the pitcher is wild or the tying run is at 3rd with the bases loaded. The players on one strike have to cope with umpires that many times make mistakes in favor of the pitcher, then come the foul ball(s), then they have to face the hook. What's your opinion.
Thanks
