This is great! Been trying to make sense of all the info out there on swing techniques and this really clears it all up. Thank you! With the clips imbedded in there too. Great stuff!
Great video. That teacherman guy has been going hard teaching this initial move I think it’s spot on.
I’ve been on this channel many years. Hitterman has been all over my feed and those videos made sense to me finally, which gives ALL of these videos new light in my brain.
Same!
Teacherman
My friend good stuff like always with great content and easy to understand explanations!!!
Thanks for your videos!! Keep them coming
Once again another great video.Keep up the great work Coach.
Just wanted to say Thank You Matt! I've been coaching softball for around 3 years and these videos have really been a blessing to help me put into words what ive been trying to communicate with my team. Keep doing what you are doing man.
Great explanation, thank you!
Thanks for this Mr. Matt. I asked this exact question on a live stream of yours. I think it’s worth noting that, when you get your upper body loaded and pulled back, the direction on the barrel turn is no longer pointed toward the catcher. If you’re a lefty, your barrel will begin turning to the left of the catcher. And if you’re a righty, your barrel will begin turning to the right of the catcher. I think this is why many people (myself included) thought the barrel turn started by pointing the barrel back toward the number on your jersey.
This video helped clarify a lot of things. Thanks again for spoiling us with MLB quality coaching for free.
This is one of your best videos.
Thanks for the tight to the shoulder que. I like that one. Helping me get away from bat lag
This solidifies my thoughts! Thanks for this and all the other great videos Matt. Been subbed for a long time now. U truly know what your talking about
Thank you!!
Great info. Being able to get in the zone early and turn the barrel is a key to adjusting to plus fastballs and off-speed.
Thanks!
Great tip Matt, thank you as always
Thanks!!
Great stuff
Here is an observation, bats should rotate and not be swung. Swing bats are hard to turn, slower and produce a long swing. A bat that is rotated swivels around the center of mass of the bat. It naturally a smaller swing that is tighter, easier to move the barrel into the zone, and quicker to get on plane.
Keep up with the great content!
To rotate a bat at its center of mass you would have to grip the the barrel. That’s where the center of mass is. Swinging from the grip gives the mechanical advantage of a lever. But you are correct in that a shorter radius makes the swing faster.
Great points and thank you!!
never knew that till teacher man...thanks
Great video! Teaching my son how to hit.
Also thank you for addressing where the hands go for the location of the pitch. Far to many “coaches” say fire that top hand to catch the ball and it’s trash
Thank you this is a great video - it really helped me understand the swing plane and being in the zone longer. Great explanation! Do you have some explanation or simplification of the load prior to the palm up/rear barrel movement? I hear words like load, stack coil etc.... How do you get this across to younger players? Thanks again Matt!
Can’t wait to teach my 16 months old this stuff
I like it. Would like to hear Matts take on one leg swing, one leg stretch. He seems like a more 50/50 guy at heal strike.
This is basically a teacher man video with someone who doesn’t look like they just played bingo
Lmao
😂
😅 you know Rich is the truth when he has a swing quicker than most guys 1/3 his age. 😆 Mr. Antonelli here also knows what's up. I think they're essentially teaching the same mechanics just with different words and methods.
@@povertygarage705 if they are both teaching it then must be legit technique huh
😂
As always💪
Where should the bat path begin? At a 45% angle or back towards the catcher?
Do you teach the High Level Pattern (HLP)?
Must hitters do it like ur saying but Soto is a one of the best hitter and does turning the bat behind him, so there are many ways to get to 5 no just one away
how do you let the barrel go ? Aka once you get to that point what is next? Thanks Matt
What is the tee you are using called? Who makes it
👍
And a hitter can still stay inside the ball initiating their turn from 90 degrees early connection immediately after toe tap.
Great info! What would you recommend for an older player like me 6'7" long legs and long arms. Still aways working on my game. Thanks.
Thanks!! And I wouldn't do anything different just because of your size. You will just need to make sure your swing stays shorts with such long limbs. Good luck!
@@AntonelliBaseball I find myself catching balls close to my hands.
90 degree early connection is second only to proper hip hinge as musts for the most efficient swing. Blast only people talking about it.
The turn starts at toe tap. Your right about barrel working to posterior side takes longer. But if you train a hitter to work barrel posteriorly and get the barrel to 90 degrees early connection AT toe tap the barrel will be on plane behind the head. Result is maximum barrel speed and efficiency. Swing plane is a circle around the hitters upper body core, tilted lower in front by correct hip hinge. Great hitters like Soto get on plane behind their head to their posterior side not toward catcher. It’s simple efficient physics. Ted Williams and Babe Ruth did it that way. Look at their videos.
I am trying to understand the to tap part. I assume this is during the load before the swing? I am a newbie sorry if this is a dumb question.
I wanta see you do a video where you go out take bp either off a live pither or a tee doesn't matter really. Just want to see you take different types of swings & watch the ball flight of each.
I have some on our channel
Teacherman says tge same thing
You have done more good in this video than that fool at pro speed hitting has done in all of his videos.
But aren't you going back behind you like you say not to do, just rotating as you do it?
Matt, you talk about the wrong hand movement in this video. The dump of the hand. What drills do you use to coach that out of the player and to make sure they aren’t “dumping”anymore?
Are you asking what drills I use to correct what I teach?
@@AntonelliBaseball Sorry for the confusion. I’m asking drills do you use to correct the incorrect movement of the hand going backwards behind the back and creating a long swing around the body that causes players to lose the barrel.
This is Teacherman style, right?
I’ve never worked with him before so don’t want to say.
Teacherman is a hack who talks out of his ass.
th-cam.com/video/P6nxfq959_g/w-d-xo.html. Can’t see it any clearer than this video at 2:19. If Ted Williams was launching back toward the catcher you wouldn’t see his entire bat.
Beats the tar out of that Teacherman nonsense.
This is literally teaching the same thing essentially.
@@Smi77y1 In some ways yes, other ways no. Teacherman teaches an upper half move which is jerky and flailing , not the smooth or fluid action you see from big leaguers or from Antonelli in this video. The goal and result is basically the same but Teacherman's movement at that stage causes a loss of balance, a partial fly open and a pull of the head--much more difficult to make consistent solid contact that way. Pros slot the elbow and turn the barrel in the fashion that Antonelli displays here, not the fashion Teacherman displays.
@@dape8993 yeah obviously antonelli looks better doing it. The concepts they are after are the same though.
You stepping out is throwing me off. Feel like you trying to cheat getting your hips open soon & generate power idk. Thanks Pete Rose stepped into the bal.
Lots of players step slightly open. Barry Bonds was one, but many others did also. As long as hips stay closed as you stride, you are good
