Here is an updated video. After we recorded, I had her try a few things that was mentioned here and having her turn so the pitcher could see her back left pocket did appear like she hit the ball a lot harder. Would this change the timing of her swing? I imagine it would since she is starting at a different stance when the pitch is thrown. Or is this just a drill done outside of a game? Thanks again for all the info.

My impression is what some call a gated swing. She doesn't seem to get separation between the hips and the shoulders the X stretch. Causing her not to use the bigger muscles of the body and just swings with her arms and not using her core very well. The front hip seems to stay closed until the launch. I am not sure but she maybe a candidate for some type of heavy bat training which may cause her to learn how to leverage her big muscles to help power her swing. With all that being said I may be off base with my conclusion. I am sure more experienced posters will chime in. Thanks for sharing her video. What age is she?
