Hitting

If you are new to my work -- and to my work on hitting in particular -- here are links to, and information about, the various hitting-related projects I am working on.

Rethinking Hitting

Rethinking Hitting is a collection of essays that discuss proper hitting mechanics and, in particular, an approach called Rotational Hitting. These essays are quite popular and have been used by hitters like Andres Torres of the San Francisco Giants to rebuild their swings.

Rotational Hitting 101 DVD

So many people asked me if I had a DVD that discusses hitting mechanics, and rotational hitting in particular, that I finally put together a DVD called Rotational Hitting 101.

The Hitting Mechanic

The Hitting Mechanic contains links to analyses of the hitting mechanics of various major league and minor league hitters and discussion of why those hitting mechanics are problematic.

Professional Hitter Analyses

In order to help people understand what the swings of major league baseball players actually look like, I have created a number of analyses of the swings and hitting mechanics of major league baseball players. This includes frame by frame analyses of the swing of Albert Pujols and a flipbook analysis of the swing of Albert Pujols .

Examples

I am a visual learner, and learn best through pictures. Since many others are as well, I collect examples of good swings and a number of key concepts related to hitting.
