Here’s a video I sent to one of my remote hitters who’s experiencing some frustration with lives after doing so well in practice.

When a new hitter comes in, they obviously want to see quick results.

I can usually get them improvements pretty quickly. Yes, you heard that — quickly.

But permanent change takes time.

Once stress gets reintroduced — live ABs, games, results matter — there’s usually a little breakdown. The hitter wants to revert back to what feels normal and comfortable.

That’s part of the process. Don’t quit- relax, and keep plugging away.

I’ve been doing this a long time. There is no “QUICK” solution.

Hey Mr & Mrs Perfect, you’re not always gonna be perfect !

Many hitters constantly train inside and outside as different contact points.

Sometimes that fastball is gonna get deeper than you want.

Can you still drive it??

As hitters get more advanced, they will benefit greatly by training a little harder:

Can you hit the inside fastball
up the middle

and hit the outside fastball
up the middle


with almost the exact same timing?

That means learning to handle the baseball deeper instead of always having to catch the inside pitch way out front.

Is it comfortable? No.
Will it always look pretty? No.

But games aren’t perfect.

You’re not always going to catch the ball exactly where you planned.

If you can learn to do damage even when the ball gets deeper than you wanted, now you’ve got another way to survive—and another way to be great.

This is why I like the Step-Back Drill for hitters who need a better load.

As he steps back, watch what happens to the front hip.

He gets a better load into the back side without just pushing his body forward.

Then from that position, he can unwind into the swing instead of pushing through the ball.

That’s the goal.

A better load.
A cleaner unwind.
Less push.

Try it.

It may help.

If it doesn’t, don’t use it.

If you don’t like it
 you don’t have to comment. 😂

But if you love it, let me know.

Dwight Gooden’s radar gun said 95 MPH.
Mason Miller’s says 103 MPH.

I synced both clips to release and again when the ball hits the catcher’s glove.

It’s going to be hard to convince me that Doc Gooden was only throwing 95 here.

Different era. Different radar technology. But visually? That baseball is getting there in a hurry.

95 vs. 103
 you tell me. đŸ‘€đŸ”„

EVERY HITTER HAS TILT. As being discussed to my 14 year old hitter today

And you’ll find more and more hitters have some degree of tilt behind vertical.

Yes, there are definitely anomalies. But the majority of hitters have some form of tilt that gives them an advantage over a hitter who has none.

Some more. Some less.
How much? Comfort + matchup.

Every pitch crosses the zone on a plane.

Different pitcher.
Different pitch plane.
Different amount of tilt.

I’ve watched hitters adjust their tilt depending on who’s on the mound.

Why?

Because it’s a lot easier to MATCH a pitch plane than try to INTERSECT it at one tiny point.

The goal isn’t one perfect posture.

COACHING TAKEAWAY:
Don’t automatically coach tilt out of a hitter because it looks like “leaning back.”

Find the tilt that gives THEIR barrel the best chance to match THAT pitch.

SWINGING WITH YOUR HEAD? MISSING UNDER? BEFORE YOU CHANGE YOUR ENTIRE SWING, CHECK YOUR HEAD. IT COULD BE THAT SIMPLE!

If you’re consistently missing under the ball, your head position may be influencing your swing.

Here’s a simple teaching point from a session.

Watch what happens when the head tilts toward the shoulder—the hands naturally want to drop with it. That can make it much easier for the barrel to work underneath the ball too early.

It’s an easy thing hitters can check on their own video:

At contact, are you seeing more of the SIDE of your head or the TOP of your head?

More ear toward the shoulder can encourage the hands and barrel to work underneath.

Instead, think more chin toward the chest—more of a subtle “YES” movement rather than tilting sideways toward the shoulder.

This isn’t about freezing the head. It’s about recognizing how one small movement can affect everything underneath it.

Before you start changing your whole swing because you’re consistently missing under


Check your head.

😂I’ve been spoofing online videos longer than some of these guys have been giving lessons.

This one popped up in my memories yesterday — 9 years ago with Tommy White — and it’s still one for the books.

To be VERY clear — this was a SPOOF. 😂 We were making fun of some of the crazy hitting instruction and online (even back then) coaching videos going around back then.

Apparently not much has changed in 9 years. đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

Whatever you do, watch the last 5 seconds. 💀😂

Again
 SPOOF. SATIRE. NOT HITTING INSTRUCTION. 😂 Tommy White Remember this 😂😂😂

I keep hearing people talk about “the offseason”
 meanwhile, teams are practicing, hitters are training, lessons are happening and everybody is still swinging.

So what offseason? 😂

A conversation with one of my online hitters got me thinking about this. He asked me:

“What should I be doing every day in the offseason?”

My answer was simple:

Give every day a purpose.

One thing I love about what they do at Summers Method is the structure. Training is treated like a daily routine, but every day doesn’t have to be everything.

You don’t need to work on mechanics, bat speed, power, timing, pitch recognition, velocity AND every location in the same session.

Pick ONE primary focus for the day.

One day might be mechanics.
One day bat speed.
One day power.
One day pitch shapes.
One day locations.
One day velocity and timing.

The exact schedule isn’t the point.

The INTENT is.

Take a month and give every training day a specific purpose.

Instead of trying to get better at 10 things today, get really good at ONE.

Then stack those days.

You don’t become a complete hitter by trying to train everything every day.

You become one by consistently training something with purpose every day.

Stop collecting reps.

Start collecting FOCUSED reps.

Maybe we should stop calling it the offseason and start calling it the DEVELOPMENT SEASON.

You hear MLB players say “MOVE THE TEE” and Most hitters get way too comfortable hitting the same pitch
same height
same location
over and over again off a regular tee. HandyTee.com

And to be clear — I still believe in regular tee work.

But HandyTee takes it to another level.

Instead of stopping every swing to drag a heavy tee around


👉 I let the hitter get set👉 Move the ball instantly👉 Change height, depth, and location on the fly👉 Make the hitter react and adjust

That’s what makes it feel more realistic.

Different looks. Different decisions. Different reactions.

The hitter doesn’t get locked into one perfect repeatable pitch every swing.

For coaches doing lessons or hitters wanting more variety and flow in training
 it’s a game changer.

More reps. Less downtime. More realistic work.
