Here is Albert teaching opposite field swing mechanics for driving the ball deep to the right center field gap with Big Mac.

Are you saying he WANTS to get on top of the ball for distance? Or is this a drill for correcting 'toping the ball'.

Goingdeep,

sorry I had to reword this it wasn't for getting on top of the ball. This demo was for driving the ball to right center.

Do you want me to hold the bat in the left hand too?

Tewks,


yes and don't forget the small hand towel he has in the left hand also.

I was just playing around with AP's Pie in the Face Hand Shove move. I tried it as if I were hitting against a stiff front leg. I kind of liked the rear hip action I felt doing it this way. Any thoughts?

Here is one of Alberts Opening day homeruns against our Cincy Reds.

Does his drill to you guys/gals look like his swing on the outside pitches? To me that is the challenge when showing kids isolation drills. If I show them the drill they feel like they have to in this case for example exagerate the push arm movement without hips and where the angle of the rear elbow changes and straightens immediately and the hands work forward as we see in the original post which is way different than the real swings. What is the benefit?
