Outside Angle Toss

What this drill helps fix

Helps hitters stay through the inside of the ball, keep their stride direction under control, and drive the outside pitch to the opposite field instead of pulling off it.

Coach Steve cue

Stay through the inside of the ball and drive it where it came from.

Why fixing this matters

Controlling direction and letting the ball travel gives the hitter a better chance to cover the outside part of the plate and drive the ball hard to the opposite field.
