Thanks everyone for the input. Reassurance is a great thing. This concept is nothing new with me but then I've been at it for years. Honestly when my DD (11) started actually swinging at the inside pitch I was one happy mom. Every time she's backed off of that pitch for the last 5 years I tell her "that's the pitch you put in the parking lot". Until the last couple months I've only gotten the yeah right you almost hit me look. She knows that when she makes good solid contact there's a chance the opposing 3rd baseman will end up on her butt, but that's about it. Knowing the possible outcome of 1 specific act does not, in my mind anyway, mean she's capable of placing a hit. For me it's still a bonus that she's swinging at the inside pitch. I remember learning to go with the pitch powerfully my 2nd year 14U- at practice off a tee. And for what it's worth if I hit one to the right side with power it's most likely accidental. Usually my impatient gotta kill it 2nd personality shows up and I end up with a swinging push bunt to the 2nd baseman. To this day this is one of the biggest challenges I as a player face, and truthfully at this point unless I have 2 strikes and am protecting myself I won't even attempt to swing at an outside pitch. It is my weakness!!
