Those recommendations weighed in on part of my decision. :)
Anther part was the video clips representing the DVD's. Some of the clips were not real understandable as far as the way they explained things. Some didn’t have any clips. I gave them no consideration.

Skills and Drills for Hitting and the Matt Walbeck Basics of Catching dvd. Since nobody seems to review any DVD's I'll be glad to post back with my opinions for these two promising looking DVD's.
For me... like many, $80+ is an awful lot to spend on something like this.

How tall is Bonds? Does he back off the plate? Teach them how to hit the ball correctly and they will mash the inside pitch like it should be.

Backing off the plate is the first step - as long as they can cover the outside croner. Then, try to keep their swing short & compact. I've seen individuals hit a growth spurt and their swing tends to become "long" and their bat speed decreases.

Work the inside pitch on a tee - short, compact swings. This should help...but then you'll need to work on their patience & the outside corner. They should have the same mindset - fastball in on the plate, then adjust (& wait) for pitches on the outside corner and off speed. This can be difficult (as they're afraid of getting jammed & thinking fastball in), but repetitions in the cage will certainly help.

Thanks,

Then, I recommend knowing the pitcher / hitter. If there's a right-handed pull hitter up to bat, or if your pitcher is not overpowering...I would suggest having your 2nd baseman hold the runner (keep your SS in position - thinking the ball will be hit to the left side of the infield). If the right-handed hitter has a slow bat or is a little weak / your pitcher is overpowering...I would suggest having the shortstop hold the runner (keep your 2B in position - thinking the hitter will be late and hit the ball to the right side of the infield)...and follow the same idea with left-handed hitters.
As they advance into higher levels of baseball, they'll be able to read the hitters quite well...and know what pitch the pitcher is throwing which will also determine who may hold the runner.

Whoever is holding the runner should be close, if not at their position when the ball enters the hitting zone. Many coaches teach that when the pitcher lifts his leg, that is when you should return to your position. With this said, you have to really work the runner on 2nd early and often & really practice your pickoffs (pitcher / SS or 2B AND pitcher / 1B). Keeping the runner on 2nd is important - especially at the lower levels because 2nd may not be considered "scoring position" (younger kids with 90ft bases & OF playing in because lack of power). But if the runner has a great leadoff & good secondary shuffle, he'll score easily.

I hope this helps - let me know if you have any additional questions!

I understand your position and enjoy those who are willing to coach/ teach/ play baseball the "right way." What age group are we speaking about? No matter what the sport, the game needs to be fun, especially at a young age.

When you take over as the Assistant Coach, you can give subtle hints...You can supervise the dugout and give him the opportunity to coach...or vice versa. You can also explain your position with the runner on 2nd base; it's often better to inform the coach before you instruct your kids in a round-a-bout way.

I recommend expressing your knowledge to the coach in practice once you take over as the assistant coach. It's tough to communicate with coaches as a parent...Hopefully you'll feel more comfortable when you become a coach.]]> Anonymous Baseball Wed, 18 May 2005 12:23:30 -0500 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,69,69#msg-69 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,69,69#msg-69 Anonymous Baseball Tue, 26 Apr 2005 23:31:05 -0500 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,38,38#msg-38 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,38,38#msg-38 Anonymous Baseball Mon, 31 Jan 2005 15:18:24 -0600 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,5,15#msg-15 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,5,15#msg-15 Anonymous Baseball Fri, 01 Oct 2004 12:59:21 -0500 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,5,5#msg-5 http://www.championshipproductions.com/forum/read.php?4,5,5#msg-5
