Softball Hitting Drill Tip - Hit The Seam

Hitting a softball is probably the hardest thing to do in sports. I think that has actually been proven by the guys over at Sports Science TV show. Jennie Finch went head to head with some MLB guys and she actually broke the machine, it was cool to watch.
Here is a quick tip to use when you are doing T-drills during hitting practice.

Set the ball on the tee with the two seams facing the rear. When you swing, imagine hitting or crushing that inside seam. Doing this will cause you to hit the middle of the ball and send it right back at the pitcher or second base.

The pitcher may not like you much , but hey that's her problem. She shouldn't be throwin' down the middle to you anyway.

This tip works for inside, middle or outside pitches so during your next hitting practice have your partner set that ball with the seams to the back and crush that inside seam.
