Jay Wilson replied to Brett Kolons's discussion Lengthening The Hitting Zone in the group Let's talk hitting Mechanics"When a coach talks to a batter about staying in the "Hitting Zone" longer, I think what they are talking about is getting the bat on plane with the ball and bringing the barrel of the bat to the ball on plane. We all know that the ball is…"
Brett Kolons replied to Ryan Solberger's discussion Long Toss"I agree. Arc when you go out with a long arm to stretch it out and get it loose. Then start to fire on a line when you are bringing it in."

Ted Browne replied to Brett Kolons's discussion Lengthening The Hitting Zone in the group Let's talk hitting Mechanics"First, I'd start with the mental approach at the plate. Each time you approach the at bat, you need to have a clue - a strategy - on how you will be approaching each pitch.
