The object or purpose of throwing the bat is to get the feeling of throwing the barrel at the ball.The pitcher is throwing the ball at the batter so the batter should get the feeling of throwing the bat back at the pitcher.Chris Yeager has a good free video on throwing the bat.He also explains why and how.Your DD would do her normal hitting sequence ,but she should finish with the bat going towards right field(RHT batter) or second base.The drill isn't about how far you can throw the bat,but she wants to throw the bat as hard as she would normally swing.You are looking for the bat to spin like a helicopter blade.You don't want it spinning end over end.Make sure you explain to your DD why she is doing this drill.Throw the bat easy at first untill she gets the feel of the knob going through her hand.
The pitcher is throwing the ball towards the plate, and you are throwing the barrel towards the ball.
