IMO, I find this to be pure gold in transferring to a pitched ball. There is often a big drop off between tee swings and a pitched ball.work on the ‘load’ of the swing. Work opposite field hitting. After those are competent, work on angle toss, when adequate work from a 3 different plate distance drill for timing.

My progression
1. Dry swing.
2. Tee swings.
3. Flips or angled toss.
4. simulated pitching machine
5. Front toss
6. live BP
