throw right/hit left


Posted by: GR CRACKEL (grcrackel@yahoo.com) on Fri May 5 17:48:30 2000


jack or anyone qualified to respond....my 18-year-old son throws right and bats left...his problem is that even on inside pitches he "inside-outs" the ball and hits to left and centerfield...the only thing he can pull is a ground ball to 1b or 2b...i am fairly sure that this problem is related to his apparent bottom-arm dominence...all i have got from coaches and instructors is things such as "stay inside the ball", "take the knob straight to the ball", do the "fence drill", etc...this advice does my son no good because he stays "inside the ball" too much...this advice is being provided by people who do not really understand that the mechanics of a left-hitter/right-thrower differ from a righ-hitter/right-thrower...what i am hoping to get from you is the name, phone #, etc of a pro in the southern california area who (1) has played baseball at a higher level than high school and (2) who himself threw right and batted left...this is a unique and specific requirement that i am looking for in an instructor, but apparently my son has a unique problem ...any advice is welcome but what i am really hoping for is some contacts in the southern california area...thank you...
