Foundations: YES, YES, NO
What this drill helps fix
Helps you get ready to hit every pitch while still choosing to take a bad one.
Coach Steve cue
Ready to hit. Say no when the pitch is not yours.
Why fixing this matters
Getting ready early helps you avoid being late. You can prepare to swing without committing to every pitch.
