This isn't a drill, just a little speech I've given my young hitters who may be intimidated or even a little scared of pitchers because of their physical size or pitching speed. I remind them that no matter how big or
"mean" that pitcher looks, as soon as he lets go of that ball, it's YOUR ball. He can't do anything else to it. He's OUT OF THE PICTURE! Plus, the ball is ALWAYS the same size, and ALWAYS has to be in the strike zone. YOU HAVE THE BAT! IT'S YOUR BALL! It's amazing how this has helped certain kids and I hope it helps yours too!
