My DD recently had a bad experience at a college showcase tournament where her coach who she just met said she was "out of her league" without seeing her play, and only let her play 5 innings out of the 7 games they played. She got nervous when she finally got playing time, and didn't do her best at the plate. She is normally a very good hitter--she had the 5th highest average in her high school league. Since that tournament though, she can't hit even the slowest pitchers. I try to encourage her, and take her to the batting cages. She hits all line drives in the cage, but completely loses it against live pitching. Her swing looks the same, but something isn't right. How can I help her overcome her mental block and help her hit again?
