Purpose

Teaches batter to keep the bathead high (higher than the hands) until she is ready to make contact.

Drill Setup

Set two tees up together. The second tee is higher than the first tee.

How It Works

1.  The lower first tee forces the batter to keep the barrel high when swinging.
2. The object is to miss the first ball and hit the second.

Coaching Tips

• If you are busy, this drill can be run without coach supervision because the batter will instantly know if she has failed to keep the bathead high if she hits the first ball.
