After that, you will be ready.<\/li>\n<li>Swing at the first pitch!&nbsp;You\u2019ll see this a lot when you notice the pitcher is throwing a lot of first pitch strikes.<\/li>\n<li>If it\u2019s strike, hit it!It doesn\u2019t matter where the pitch is in the zone, if it\u2019s a strike (or just close) you\u2019re swinging.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>As a hitter and as a coach, I want to maximize success in the box \u2013\u2013 <strong>that\u2019s my number one priority<\/strong>. I need to be putting myself and fellow hitters in the best position possible, and it all starts with our approach.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>I\u2019ve tried all three of these approaches in my career with some success, but also with some failures (as expected). When I got to college, I was presented with a new idea \u2013\u2013 a new approach to hitting that I had never heard before.<\/div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>Swing at the first pitch? <em>Not necessarily<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Let the first pitch go? <em>Not every time<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Hit it if it\u2019s a strike? <em>Hardly<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>Hitters need to <strong>understand what their strengths and weaknesses are<\/strong> in the box.&nbsp;I remember my coach asking me what pitch I hit the best, and me not being able to give her a straight answer \u2013\u2013 I probably said something like how I liked inside and outside pitches and drew my imaginary zone in front of me with my hands. I remember her laughing (out of kindness) and I couldn\u2019t help but feel embarrassed. Up to that point in my career, I had a lot of success at the plate without a lot of in-depth conversations about hitting. From that point on, my approach not only improved, but my ability as a hitter did as well.<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<div><em>Your approach should be based on your strengths, the situation and the pitcher\u2019s tendencies\/ability.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>Remember that your strengths and weaknesses will morph, situations will vary, and <strong>not all pitchers are created equal<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<ul class=\"font_8\">\n<li>\n<div>You work on getting better every day, so your strengths and weaknesses will change as a result.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Does the plan change throughout the game, or season? It can, but again, not by much. Bunts, runners at second\/third, hit and runs, sacs, etc. \u2013\u2013 all of these would completely change your approach.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>Pitchers have strengths and weaknesses just like the rest of us. Watch what she uses to get ahead, when she falls behind, and to get hitters out.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>Here\u2019s some additional points&nbsp;to keep in mind:<\/div>\n<p><strong>1. Make sure your coach is on the same page:<\/strong>&nbsp;Talk with your coach about your approach, that way he\/she can better help and strategize with you. If your coach is telling you to let the first pitch go, and you swing because it\u2019s in plan, you\u2019re going to have an upset coach on your hands. Situations like this can be avoided if you simply&#8230;<\/p>\n<div><strong>2. Have a plan before you step into the box:<\/strong>&nbsp;Before we go up to bat, we need to already know what pitches we\u2019re going to swing at. We DO NOT want to guess, or just \u2018wing it\u2019. We want to KNOW. This means you have to understand the situation, know your strengths, and study the pitcher \u2013\u2013 where she tends to throw the ball, how she\u2019s pitching to your teammates, etc.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><strong>3. Be willing to adjust&#8230;situations change:<\/strong> All pitchers are different. Your approach may have to be tweaked every now and then \u2013\u2013 it\u2019s OK. However, just remember that the more consistent we are, the better the chances of our success.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><strong>4. Ask for help<\/strong>:&nbsp;Of course, you know which pitches you are more confident in. Having confidence when hitting certain pitches is crucial, but it\u2019s not everything. (For example: I was confident when I swung at pitches over my head, but that doesn\u2019t mean I should have swung at them!) Ask your parents and coaches for their opinions on which zones you hit better, and more consistently. Pay attention to your tendencies at practice and keep the line of communication open.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div><em>CoachUp is the safest and easiest way to find a coach for personalized training.
