More Pro Hitting Tips & Drills
Your hitting abilities and offensive production will often dictate how much playing time a player gets.
The more run production = more playing time. Rarely do youth baseball coaches keep good batters on the bench for too long.
The better the player can produce offense, the increased chances that the player will continue wearing a baseball uniform.
Here is a list of topics on offensive baseball better from a professional approach.

Baseball How to Teach Batting
To Hit the ball is difficult enough. But when you add too much fear to the batting swing we can really have problems teaching kids how to play baseball.
Not many batters are really look forward to being struck by a pitch. Especially when the ball is coming with four seam fastball velocity by a really good pitcher.
Chances are the ball will really hurt. The last thing we want is to get smacked in the face with a baseball. Younger baseball players from t-ball through twelve years old can really have some bad experiences with being pegged by a pitch and thus becoming afraid of the ball.
How do you teach batters to not be afraid of the ball. By the right batting tips and knowledge. By using a few batting techniques and batting drills you can as a batting coach, little league coach, parent and batting instructor help youth league players deal with the fear of being pegged with the ball.
