Tight Tee

What this drill helps fix

Helps hitters keep the hands inside the ball instead of casting them away from the body and pulling the ball off line.

Coach Steve cue

Load, get behind it, keep the hands inside, and drive it up the middle.

Why fixing this matters

Keeping the hands inside the ball creates a tighter, more direct path so the hitter can drive the ball back up the middle instead of hooking it to the pull side.
