Hitting Tips from Carlos: #6 Pulling Inside

"Hey guys what's going on. Its coach Garcia and today we're going to be talking real quick about the most common bad habits that I see with youth hitters when they walk into a batting cage. 

Another habit I see a lot is guys taking that first swing and trying to pull it instead of using the big part of the field to hit the ball to the other way. Guys, try to start your batting practice hitting the ball to the other way to train and visualize the way how the ball should be hit when you're behind on the count, when you need to let the ball travel, then that way you start looking for direction first.

I know you guys want to show how hard you guys hit the ball, but honestly you can work on your swing and being consistent utilizing the bigger part of the field. It doesn't really matter how strong you are. You need to learn how to hit the ball to the other way, then I promise it will be so much easier for you guys. Later on in your batting practice start hitting the ball to your pull side and showing how far you can hit the ball." -Carlos Garcia
