With 2 outs & 2 strikes, runners should start running as soon as bat starts swinging. Watch for swing to begin, don't wait to see ball hit bat. Just be ready for check swing ball.
This is terrible advice. The batter could decide to check his swing and if the pitch is a ball the runner is dead. With two outs you wait for contact unless it’s a full count and you are forced.
This is the right way to teach leads from second base. Thanks for sharing.
