NEVER STRIKE OUT AGAIN?! In today's video Coach Justin from Ultimate Baseball Training will show you a few baseball hitting tips to help you reduce your strike outs while hitting.
The first important thing to understand is it’s not realistic to expect yourself to never strike out.
Hitting a baseball is one of the toughest things to do in sports. That being said, there are some tips you can focus on that will greatly reduce your strikeouts.
The first tip is to move closer to the plate. The majority of strike outs happen on the outside part of the plate, so you want to try your best to take away that part of the zone.
You also want to think outside and react in. It's much easier to expect an outside pitch and react to an inside pitch than it is to do the opposite.
Another tip is to minimize head movement. The more your head moves, the more your eyes will move. This will make pitch recognition more difficult.
Remember, if you struggle hitting with two strikes, don’t get to two strikes. Force contact early.
Expand your zone and swing at anything close. If you can reach it with your bat, put it in play. Don't leave it up to the umpire.
Tell yourself, “I’m swinging until it’s a ball.” This will help you stay aggressive.
Lastly, remember to shorten up and don’t try to do too much. The most important thing is to put the ball in play and give yourself a chance.
