Hitting Guru

[_MIA_]

First time ever playing with them. Pitched great! She plays as a 13 year old and pitched 13 innings in a HS showcase. Gave up 2 runs. Change, curve, drop, and rise all day. Struggles hitting because of inconsistency. Very strong for size.

Ok strange response to what I posted (you might as well have posted she has a 4.0 and beautiful teeth in response...) but for your kid and for you being the epitome of a “life gives you a lemon make lemonade” guy

Great in BP but hasn’t carried over to the game. Picked up this weekend and she crushed in the 1st cage and then switched cages and the coach started messing with her swing. Looked off all day. Chicken or egg?

That’s too bad.

hahaha. Talking to me? Well basically the BP will get better quicker and the game swing can take some time. Much less of a stress level. Everyone is a bit different. There could be other things that aren’t correct as well. Not sure. There is no definitive answer unfortunately.

I have seen kids take adjustments and turn them into quality hits immediately and I’ve seen it take a week or two. Level of proprioception is usually the deciding factor. She’s a pitcher so it shouldn’t take too long. Or it could boil down to trying to impress which usually just turns into unnecessary stress.

Lol. He had never seen her hit before. Was crushing and started messing with her swing.
