Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum

out in front

I’m guessing 75 percent of the pitches my son puts into play are hit off the end of the bat. I know, no matter how good the mechanics, success will be minimal if you can’t wait for the ball to get into the hitting zone. Our practices, tee work, soft toss, bag work are geared at making contact off the lead knee. Is there anything we can practice that will help him wait or is it a mental thing he has to overcome.
