JJ can confirm but I think he is concerned that the coach has all the players crowd the plate no matter who the batter or pitcher is and no matter the game situation. In general, each batter has their own unique batting stance that suits their swing mechanics and build/stature. One size doesn't fit all when determining where a batter should stand in the box.
confirmed. Of course there are specific batters and situations where it makes sense to give this instruction, but I was talking about the coaches who use it as a general philosophy.
