What's your hitter thinking in the on-deck circle?
Tournament weekend. First at-bat. Your hitter's never seen this pitcher before.

For most kids, the honest answer isβ¦ nothing. See ball, swing at ball, hope. And that works fine β right up until the pitcher has a second pitch.
New video's up: why kids get fooled by every new pitcher, and the one yes-or-no question that fixes it. He can answer it before he ever leaves the dugout. πhttps://youtu.be/RzRQMxWpgYM
Comment below: does your hitter do anything to size up a pitcher before he steps in β or is he just swinging the bat on deck and waiting his turn? No wrong answers. Most don't.
