High-quality aluminum and composite baseball bats allow you to perform like a pro. These are the same baseball bats that college players use in the NCAA College World Series.
Hitters Tip - Pitcher's Body Language
To be a good hitter it is always a good idea to watch the pitcher and try to pick up small changes in body language when different pitches are being thrown (curveball, fastball, changeup). In high school there usually are small signs that can tip off what pitch is coming. A common one is the angle that the pitcher holds the glove at.
Reverse Soft toss
This is the same as normal soft toss with a twist. Have your coach or partner who is tossing the ball move from in front of you to directly behind you. Take your normal batting stance and catch up with the ball as it comes through the zone. It will take a few to get the hang of it. You should be able to catch up with the baseball and still be able to drive it into the net. This drill is great for bat speed and hand-eye coordination
Fungo Golf
When you get to the ball field early and have some spare time, grab some buddies and play some fungo golf (fungos are best but any bat will do). Pick a spot on the field to hit to and tee off. The person to hit the target in the least amount of strokes wins the hole. Pick different targets all over the field and get in as many holes as possible before the rest of the team shows up. Believe it or not this game will help with bat control.
