Re: low outside pitch

> What is the best way to teach players to wait on a low outside pitch? I have many that will lunge at the ball in front of the plate instead of waiting and hiting it to the oposite field.

I teach back and then forward on the weight shift as a timing mechanism. The timing and speed of the weight shift occurs at pitch recognition.

The other thing you can teach is to intentionally try and hit the inside half of the ball with the bat. When a hitter is trying to do this then they have to wait for the ball to get there.
