This is great advice. More kids are hurt by over coaching then by under coaching. This will allow you to work on it without getting mechanical. The body is pretty amazing at organizing all on its own to accomplish a task - just gotta find the right task to accomplish what you want.She needs to make some changes. Rather than just giving her mechanical cues to try and change her mechanics see if you can come up with a task/drill that will make her attack the ball differently. She will have to adapt her swing to fit the drill. For instance put the ball on a very low tee in the middle of the plate and ask her to hit line drives over the 'pitchers' head. You can demonstrate it for her, just imitate that Trout swing that Shawn posted above. She needs to get the bat on plane much earlier.
