When coaching baseball and softball athletes, one of the most important jobs that we have is being "translators." Our job is to continue to spend time learning the complex science behind the sport, understand how it relates to the players we’re working with, and know-how to package it into language and drills that our players can actually use to get better.

When it comes to hitting in baseball and softball, it is one of the hardest things to do in sports. That's why as hitting coaches, we need to focus on our players feeling the movements instead of focusing on the biomechanics and complex terminology that can be overwhelming.
