Struggling with outside pitch
Dd Is really struggling with hitting the outside pitch. So much so that any good pitcher is striking her out with ease on three outside pitches. I'll try to post a video but was wondering if any of you had drills to help her out with this. Thanks- pyschodad

After about 50 swings and misses the batter hit one right back into DD's shin. You could hear the thud. Luckily, it was just a bad...- pyschodad

Some advice, please
DD is in her second year of 12u ball and pitching on a pretty competetive team. There is also a chance she will be getting a good deal of pitching time for her middle school team as a 7th grader.
