| Hitting Drills with Jay Martel,
San Diego State University Assistant Coach This is a "must-have" video for all coaches and players that are
looking to improve hitting!
Coach Martel has numerous years of
experience at the local and regional level in San Diego, coaching
players of all ages and abilities and was also a successful prep player
and played professionally with the St. Louis Cardinals organization.
In
this video, Martel does an excellent job of explaining and
demonstrating different effective hitting drills including different
Tee Drills and Toss Drills.
All of the drills help teach and reinforce
proper body positioning, bat control, head positioning, and hand
positioning.
Teaching these techniques and using repetitions allows
players to use the entire field, which will increase their batting
averages.
All of the drills are ideal for team practices and many of
the drills are well-suited for players to use to perfect their hitting
skills on their own! 45 minutes. 2003.
Hitting Mechanicswith Jim Dietz,
former San Diego State University Head Coach,
ABCA Hall of Fame 2002 Coach
Dietz won over 1200 games in his 31 years of coaching and was known for
tremendous statistics in the win/loss column, in his athlete's
excellent academics, and for creating numerous opportunities for his
players.
He was the college coach to many future "big league" hitting
sensations, including Tony Gwynn, Mark Grace and Travis Lee. In this
excellent video, Dietz shares his wisdom and experience in order to
help you get the most out of what a hitter has and, using what they
already have, mold them into a more constant hitter (versus changing
everything that the hitter already does).
In this on-field
demonstration video, Dietz shows how to recognize the inside pitch, the
outside pitch, a fastball, and a change up and how to use this to
create a constant swing.
Having a constant swing will allow your hitter
to use all fields and go with pitches. Also emphasized: teaching
players to hit with their hands and proper stride length. This is a
great hitting video! 55 minutes. 2003.
