    Getting out of the batters box quickly

    Work with my twins on speed out of the batters box. Does anyone have any slow mo videos of the "perfect bat drop" as the hitter releases the bat and strides to first? Do you prefer a quick shuffle step or more of a strong pushoff and longer stride? Thanks for any input! Moe

    Pitching machine

    I ordered a axiom 2 pitching machine off Ebay and it said it was softball adaptable. Well it only uses 9" balls. The adaptation is to lower the legs for a softball angle.

    I'm a 17yo first baseman/outfielder/catcher and I do a lot of tee work to try and improve my hitting.

    Composite Bats.

    When using a pitching machine for hitting practice the "standard" rule has been to NEVER use composite bats when hitting rubber, dimpled balls. However, over the past couple of seasons I've run across several teams that allow their players to use them in this way! I think $ 300.00 is a steep...
