It's such a pity you don't explain at the start, however briefly, WHY you move the tee outside to inside. Or WHY aim for the seam in the second swing and WHERE that is for viewers who, of course, can't see it. ---So many important points and lessons are omitted, that would help the student get oriented and better understand what he's doing, and why, and that take only a few seconds to impart. Teachers: Always, always give your students a sound idea why you're asking them to do something. This allows them to sync up mind and body, idea and action.

@@johnstrawb3521 I have like 3,000 videos on all of these topics in our hitting playlist. This was more just me and my son hitting.

What great kid! You were meant to be a father and coach. Heart warming to see how kind you are to him and still manage to teach. Great great example.

Great video! My son and I honestly appreciate the top notch videos. You break it down so that young kids can understand it better. 👍 👌

I was impressed with his exit velocity in the low 60s with the rubber balls

Thanks for the video Matt, I love the instruction to his age range.

Matty is on his way to get heckled with "YOU GOTTA START EARNING THAT MONEY!" and late night Panda Express. At least he wont get called an embarrassment by Vin Scully.

I'd like to see his bat start less wrapped around his neck and more up, 45 degrees and athletic. Also I'd ask him to keep his feet in the same place relative to the plate than relative to the T. Good kid, good swing.

@DAatDA 7 місяців тому

Matty's got a great lefty swing.

Thanks!

Great to see. Thank you for this video. I can't wait to show this to my 7 year old. Last season I instructed him to "pre-load" just like your son is doing. His timing improved a lot. Now we're working on saying back instead of lunging forward for the ball.

Just let the 7 to 9 yr olds have fun. Don't get caught up on too many corrections. Have fun and lots of reps is the name of the game. Make everything a competition.

Great video and instruction. Suggestion: lose the gum when wearing a mic

Do you have any thoughts on training with vitilla caps and stick?

@TREEHUGGAH1 7 місяців тому

wow that looks like a mini ted williams . that swing is A++ if he used a lighter bat would he hit more to right and right center?

@SwitchHittingDaily День тому

I train everyday as well, I have to take more time hitting because I am a switch hitter.

@coachbiff09 2 місяці тому

"That's a good swing right there, down and away." "Line out." "That's ok." Exactly. Process, not results.

@ashleythompson2515 7 місяців тому

Matt. Any advice or a video for t-ballers. My son is 4 and loves baseball. As a former college player I don't want to over teach/coach. He asks me constantly to hit and field. What r your thoughts?

@dblankenship88 7 місяців тому

I know you asked Matt but I would recommended letting him hit and field as much as he wants or time permitting. Fixing mechanics shouldn’t start till he can hit coach pitch.

@warrenwozencraft8224 4 місяці тому

@donaldhunt4 7 місяців тому

Do you think he is hitting more to opposite field because of how he's wrapping the bat back behind his head?

@AntonelliBaseball 7 місяців тому

I personally think it’s because he likes to drop forward and doesn’t stay behind the ball well. Also, has a tendency to start his load very late

@cmajr1232 7 місяців тому

You think it’s fair to say, it’s also because of that tee work- Working his hands inside out etc? At 9 years old, having that ability or concept hitting the other way, being inside the ball is amazing. I’ll take that all day rather than constantly wrapping, pulling etc He’ll obviously make the necessary adjustments on that inside pitch soon.

@AntonelliBaseball 7 місяців тому

@@cmajr1232 I agree I’d rather this. We hit on the tee only a handful of times in the last year so I don’t think it’s that. Just think it’s how his body current moves

@cmajr1232 7 місяців тому

@@AntonelliBaseball I’ve been working with my 11 y.o. son on the tee, using the same concepts of moving the tee outside/in etc although he still has some difficulty with that inside pitch, getting the barrel out front. He stays inside the ball well but I think you know what I mean when referring to the inside pitch I believe you made a comment about doing some sorta closed/open stance front flip drills to work on some of these things….Do you have a video you can refer me too?

@unclestinky6388 7 місяців тому

Seems like Matty is reacting real late to the pitches from the machine. The ball looks like it's right on top of him. Today's hitters get started much earlier and are almost waiting on their back leg with their front leg up. I wish I had done that when I was younger

@NathanEdward-ue3ui Місяць тому

That gum though

@JayJay-rg3bs 7 місяців тому

The chewing come on man

@baseballatanyage5426 7 місяців тому

These mats need thin white lines so you know if your toes are in the same spot for Out, Middle and In setups. Too easy even for adults to cheat towards the ball, let alone a 9 yr old
