The Hitting Edge (Book) $19.95 Hitting a hard-thrown baseball is one of the most difficult skills in sports. The Hitting Edge simplifies the task by focusing on key features common in every successful hitter’s swing: dynamic balance, sequential rotation, axis of rotation, and bat lag.Author Tom Robson identified these hitting “absolutes” through extensive video analysis and research and his on-field role as a major league hitting coach. He confirmed the importance of the four factors by studying the best hitters of the modern era, such as Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire, and working with top batsmen like Rafael Palmeiro and John Olerud. And a hitter doesn’t need to be an all-star to benefit from Robson’s instruction, because it applies across all levels of competition and allows for all types of individual swing styles.Robson also recognizes that batters aren’t robots, and human factors sometimes interfere with hitting mechanics. So he also teaches how to develop better focus and a more positive attitude at the plate. But it takes more than the right stroke to develop consistent contact and power. Focus. Split-second timing. An eye for the perfect pitch. Great hitting requires all these elements and more. Much of The Hitting Edge is dedicated to the physical and mental details of preparing for the pitch, followed by six information-packed chapters on the mechanics of the swing.Loaded with concise instruction, skill demonstration, photos, effective drills, and more, Robson’s book cleans up where other hitting books strike out. Take the knowledge available in this book with you to every at-bat and you’ll have The Hitting Edge.

Indoor Practice Drills: Hitting Drills (DVD) $39.99 With Scott Stricklin,Kent State University Head Coach;2006 Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year;2008 & 2006 Mid-American Conference regular season titlesThis excellent DVD is dedicated to hitting and all of the important fundamentals needed to consistently drive the ball. A player’s stance and set up is the foundation of a good hitter. Coach Stricklin and his players demonstrate how the feet are a big part of the stance. A good bat grip consists of proper knuckle and elbow alignment, which allows you to “whip” the bat through the strike zone. A proper stance will require the bat be at a 45-degree angle. A level head will assure that your eyes are also level. The stride follows a good stance. Loading up the backside prepares a hitter for the pitch and is an important aspect of hitting. A good swing relies on the arms staying compact until contact is made, then hitters extend their arms through the hitting zone. Four things must be present for good hitters: head, back, back side and balance. Stricklin believes in the concept of “staying inside the baseball.” This means you are short to the baseball and hitting the ball where it’s pitched. The first set of drills demonstrates hitting off of a tee. The double tee drill produces two types of hits from two identical swings. To work on the timing mechanism, the soft toss drill gives players lots of hitting opportunities. Other hitting drills include the behind toss, angle toss and front toss. The bounce drill simulates pitches by bouncing the ball off the ground. Moving to the batting cage, players can practice simulated rounds of batting practice. Rounds will develop hitting from different situations such as bunting, hit and run, runner at second with no outs, runner at third base with the infield in, swing away and more. These drills will teach fundamentals and improve productivity and consistency at the plate.51 minutes. 2006.

Jackson has given his hitters an approach to hitting that has made them one of the best hitting teams in major league history, leading major league baseball in 10 offensive categories (2003-2004), and setting all-time major league records in extra base-hits (649), total bases (2,832), and slugging percentage (.491). Along with talent and hard work, all great hitters have an approach to hitting and can identify what makes them succeed and what does not lead to successful hitting. Jackson teaches how to best observe pitchers to help identify their tendencies, strengths, and weaknesses by focusing on different aspects of their delivery and mental preparation. He also stresses the importance of knowing yourself as a hitter and using personal strengths to gain an advantage at the plate. Jackson then gives a specific approach and recommended contact points for the fastball, curveball, slider, change-up, split-finger, and knuckle ball. In addition, Coach Jackson helps hitters know what hitting zones to focus on according to pitch type and count, and how to make adjustments accordingly. Hitters will learn how to develop a “good eye” at the plate by tracking each pitch using drills that will help them know the strike zone better. These principles to developing a hitting approach, combined with their natural ability and hard work, will make them a more successful and complete hitter! 40 minutes. 2005.
