Always welcome

These techniques work, that's for sure. I've seen it many times.

Thank you

When you tip it up to create the fly, it will not feed the wheels that turn to create the pitches, so I'm going to say no. I guess you could take the unit up high and have it pitch out and thus the balls would drop down, but that isn't a true fly ball.

Yes. Anything that helps a hitter concentrate on a fast-moving ball and if it's smaller than a softball, it should make the pitch seem like a beach ball coming up there.

For the Personal Pitcher, the shipping would only take a few days as that's where I'm located and where they manufacture them. However, there is a lead time to manufacture them which varies, at the time of this writing it's 1-2 weeks. And the MaxBP has theirs in Amazon warehouses around the country, so you could get them quickly.

But during the time the ball has left the pitcher's hand and your teammate hits the ball you can leadoff the base and if you're off the base in fair ground you'll be out, so the video's advice is correct.

Off the base and hit by the batted ball is what I meant to say.

@@theInternetHittingCoach That is not a leadoff. You are mis-interpreting what a leadoff is. Only in baseball can a runner leadoff. As I stated before, the leadoff is when the pitcher still has the ball. In softball the runner must maintain the bag until the ball leaves the pitchers hand. That is an attempt to advance, not a leadoff. In baseball the runner takes a leadoff from the bag while the pitcher still has the ball.

@@baseballumpires6901 okay, but can we agree that you want to be in foul ground?

@@theInternetHittingCoach definitely. Lead off should be in foul territory and the attempt to advance after the pitch should be in foul territory. People will argue baseline but the line on the ground is just the foul line. They can go as far foul as they want.

Thank you. I like to think my 50 + years of coaching makes me a trustworthy expert for these items

Any of my videos should help. Write down everything you learn, from the videos, to what happens at practices and games, and things you've read. You'll be amazed if you reread your notes a season later, how much you've forgotten and it will re-jog your memory.

Thanks for the affirmation.

Glad it helped. Now, how has the choice of a machine helped in your hitting?

Because of the weight and they are not as solid, the results will not be as consistent as you'd like, but they will fit.

You're very welcome. It's probably the one question, when first starting out, that no one wants to ask for feeling dumb since everyone's using it like they know what it means.

You can use it for baseball, it's just that the data and the expected numbers will relate to softball players rather than baseball. But it can still show improvement over time which is what you'd want in either sport.

@@theInternetHittingCoach Thank you so much. My son is 9 little league with all these bats. I'm so confused. Price's are all over the place my son is a power hitter. 54 inches tall. 84 pounds. Right hand hitter. Pulls to left. Inside hitter. He has a 5150. And 2018 cf Zen balanced. Do you have any. Advice if different bat.will make any difference. Thank you.

@Thomas Thompson at that age, I concentrate on mechanics and checking in with them to make sure they're having fun. Generally, any bat will do the trick, so whatever bat he feels like has the nose hits in it generally does. Some Dick's Sporting goods stores have facilities to let you test a number of bats.

Glad you think so! I appreciate your comments.

it really matters how fast you are, your hand eye coordination, height, right or left or anything. what kind of body type are you and ill fit u in a category

I definitely think you should tryout. You don't want to look back when you're older and say "I wish I had tried out". If you don't know what position, then it probably will be an uphill struggle. Generally the weaker players are put in the outfield or second base, but you need to be able to catch fly balls in the outfield and grounders in the infield. The position that will have the least competition because so few people play it is catcher (but as the name implies, you will need to catch a pitch).

I hope you tryout for the experience alone. You will feel good in doing so even if you don’t make it! Good luck! And you can always continue playing baseball at local/ house levels / rec leagues or softball leagues

Thanks for asking Jimm. I started filming the next piece to this and then got distracted with other things I wanted to share. When I get it finished, I'll let you know .

@@AndyCollins also looking forward on your review of the actual performance and usefulness of this device. Also, if you think the additional paid features make sense or not. thanks

Yeah, finding out he was the guy Justin Turner turned to for a quantum improvement to his hitting was what made me seek him out, even on this topic because I think it was Justin Turner who I first saw with something on his thumb.

thank you :)

Yeah, that's a good choice for that age group and will serve you well. One thing I didn't mention in my link to purchase the personal pitcher, www.theInternetHittingCoach.com/personal-pitcher.html is that I also add a 1" barrel bat, the tripod to hold it, and a mini web glove to work on even more eye-hand coordination as a bundle offer.

I have another video where it's demonstrated by the inventor's son who played 5 years in MLB by using it. Look for it at 3:30 mark ruclips.net/video/kIYnigJ_QPw/видео.html

Just trying to help people get better at hitting and this machine does that.

That's tremendous. Congratulations to him.

I'm sorry you weren't able to hear this as it was recorded from a one spot to get both of us speaking, but the sound levels when I listen to it are adequate to get the information to help hitters decide to use the prohitter.

It's adequate and understandable. That's the most important thing to me

Yes My Son does have this. Butt what I thought in simple terms. It to leave a gap. Between the bat and the hand because your not actually supposed. Grip the batt hard. And hit more with your Fingers. Probably why Turner loses. The bat so much because because he is hitting with loose Grip. Just my Guess. Thanks for the info like always.

You're very welcome.

Funny. It is an approach as mentioned in the Little League Confidential book.

I've had a personal pitcher for over 10 years and I believe the MaxBP holds up just as well.

That's great. Work hard.

I'm glad this helps

this is a great machine that will help hitters see the ball better, so I'm sorry you felt this way and am uncertain why you would.

@@theInternetHittingCoach I apologize I was in a foul mood and couldn’t figure out how adjust speeds and I was hoping you would show me that. I figured it out though. Great machine

@@ashtonbudden4442 I appreciate your clarifying it. I'm glad you're liking the machine and you got it figured out, but it's helpful to me to know how to make my videos better and answer more potential questions people may have.

Yeah. Actually I don't even need to drive, I can watch the games from my kitchen window or over the fence.

See you on the ballfield soon

Thanks. Did you get one?

Glad you enjoyed it.

There you go.

second that. Deliberate, Focused, Perfect Practice, with your goals in mind.

what were you expecting? Did you like it?

Thanks Dragon

Yes, it's for safety. If you hit the ball on the dented part the fielder might think it was going one way and it might come off the bat differently.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks

Glad you enjoyed it!
