Thanks for posting video. It makes things a lot easier to diagnose.

If you look at the line of her shoulders at contact in comparison with top hitters, she is rotated past the point of being square to the pitcher, whereas top hitters aren't rotated that far.

It looks to me like the hands/rear shoulder/scap need to be pulling back a little longer - against the hips turning forward - which will help keep the line of the shoulders closed a little longer.

With some hitters, they pull hard with the front side (usually with an arm bar), which also leads to being too far open too soon. I don't see that in this swing.

The bigger issue is why does that rear lwg just spin. Even if shes getting hips i front shes still apinning
