Episode 4 video This episode is brought to you by baseballcloud and OnBaseU. iTunes Stitcher Google Spotify Summary: In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I proceed forward in the discussion with Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California. This fourth episode covers topics related to drills to improve movement of the heel and foot kicks during the swinging process. Gain some guidance on how to create more consistent hitters that can self-correct their process. Show Notes: Guests: Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California Craig and Doug discuss a beneficial heel drill How to create a backside drive into a front side brace What is the “kick drill” for swinging Any move that doesn’t allow your foot to release will jeopardize your line How do you fix holes in your swing What is a good process to hit a baseball How many different body types do they see in high school Hitting the ball hard is a myth Get consistent in your hitting path Learn how to self-correct your swing Avoid cookie-cutter coaching advice Move forward from mistakes Getting upset and emotional makes a player unbalanced 3 Key Points: It is natural for the body to want to kick during a swing. All we can do as a hitter is go on time, find a good balance point, and take a swing. Vision and timing are a part of balance. Tweetable Quotes: “If the front foot comes up underneath my hip, I carry athletically.” - Doug Latta (2:45) “I’m going to keep the foot, knee, and hip together, even in a practice.” - Doug Latta (3:54) “A lot of people say ‘keep that foot down’ Don’t you dare, that’s an anchor.’” - Doug Latta (8:12) “You’ve got to be able to do damage on any pitch.” - Doug Latta (10:14) “He just missed that pitch. Don’t throw it again because he won’t miss it twice.” - Doug Latta (11:40) “Why do people quit playing baseball? Because they can’t hit. This game is no fun when you can’t hit.” - Doug Latta (14:13) “Strength compliments a swing. It doesn’t define a swing.” - Doug Latta (16:50) “The key is, the more they understand their body and feel it, they're going to be able to fix.” - Doug Latta (19:22) Resources Mentioned: Ahead of the Curve Podcast @AOTC_podcast Craig Hyatt Twitter: @HyattCraig Doug Latta Twitter: @LattaDoug Ballyard.net Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook Ahead of the Curve Coaches Facebook group Instagram aotc_podcast

YouTube Video This episode is brought to you by baseballcloud and OnBaseU. iTunes Stitcher Google Spotify Summary: In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I continue the discussion with Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California. During this third installment of our talk, we get into the importance of developing a natural, clean hitting setup and establishing a fluid hitting range. Show Notes: Guests: Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California “The Two Hand Under” move is explained by Craig Hyatt and Doug Latta What has helped Craig become trained to see proper swings Typically only hits and home runs are showcased, not the consistency level of a hitter How do kids pick their hitting set-ups What can we learn from the sound decibels of hits What is the importance of having an effective range of contact Which training drills are very beneficial for hitters What is the movement called “moving into the staircase” You have to have front side resistance to have back side Every hitter has to operate on their own terms 3 Key Points: Swing clean, free, and fast, but not necessarily harder. Sound is loud and long at the point of contact during a hit. A good miss is having a good position, with your energy driving towards the pitcher. Tweetable Quotes: “One major leaguer that I assembled some video for, who just ordered one season. I had 80-some videos of him, just in one season.” - Craig Hyatt (1:12) “There is no ABC, 123, cookie-cutting way to make a hitter.” - Doug Latta (2:32) “New hitters are going to grow. Even big leaguers change. But, there is not ’this is the perfect swing.’” - Doug Latta (2:48) “People ask me all the time, with all the videos I’ve seen, ‘who is your favorite?’ I don’t know. My favorite is the player’s best swing.” - Craig Hyatt (2:59) “I don’t fix swings. I fix setups.” - Craig Hyatt (3:48) “If we get in a good set-up, it will create a good first move, that will get the balance, and everything takes care of itself after that.” - Craig Hyatt (5:00) “My shoulders need to stay very level in my move in order for me to have balance. Because if my shoulders go downhill, I’m going to fall, I’m going to rush, and I’m going to come in and out of the zone.” - Doug Latta (13:30) “It is not easy to spin, which is not a natural move for the body.” - Doug Latta (22:25) Resources Mentioned: Ahead of the Curve Podcast @AOTC_podcast Craig Hyatt Twitter: @HyattCraig Doug Latta Twitter: @LattaDoug Ballyard.net Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook Ahead of the Curve Coaches Facebook group Instagram aotc_podcast

Episode 2 YouTube Link This episode is brought to you by baseballcloud and OnBaseU. iTunes Stitcher Google Spotify Summary: In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I join in on the discussion with Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from BallYard based in Northridge California. We break down the impact of balance in leveraging the power and abilities of the human body, and how to break bad habits that are hurting hitters. Show Notes: Guests: Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington, and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California How do they define balance and why do we need it What is the biggest grind move Describe what people mean by “get into the ground” How can coaches get their players moving more effectively Why can tennis drills improve hitting How can hockey slap shot drills benefit baseball hitting Backspin is built in when you hit through a spin How does tennis showcase how players create power Homes runs come from being smooth and productive with your body You have got to have consistency What is a the hitting strategy called “shut piece” How prevalent is the analysis of high school player stats and data You have to hit through each pitch What does it mean to have a soft entry into the zone Don’t hit your pitches with your front arm Video and data can show a hitter what their body is doing 3 Key Points: The body works better from a position of balance. Tennis drills offer players the chance to feel proper body movement when hitting. One hit every two weeks, at the big league level, is 20 points towards your average Tweetable Quotes: “I have a very strong bias for balance. I think it is elemental to the way bodies move.” - Craig Hyatt (01:35) “I really think tennis and actually throwing are the best ways that really exemplify how our bodies should move when we hit.” - Doug Latta (13:18) “We really hit balls in a line and in a rectangle.” - Doug Latta (17:38) “The thing with tennis, all the bodies are different. So there is variation of how guys create power, but they also need to be consistent, they need to hit the ball in a certain direction.” - Craig Hyatt (21:08) “‘I worked really hard to hit that home run.’ No, you hit that homerun because you were clean and efficient with your body.” - Craig Hyatt (22:37) “Most young hitters and a lot of professional hitters have big shoulder moves. And if we don’t get those out of them, they aren’t going any farther.” - Doug Latta (24:36) “Once we get down to balance, the one key I want and give people is, you have to hit through every pitch you see.” - Doug Latta (30:33) “Train young hitters so that they have the same basic moves that they’re going to have up the latter, and their adjustments become internal.” - Doug Latta (31:40) Resources Mentioned: Ahead of the Curve Podcast @AOTC_podcast Craig Hyatt Twitter: @HyattCraig Doug Latta Twitter: @LattaDoug Ballyard.net Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook Ahead of the Curve Coaches Facebook group Instagram aotc_podcast

Episode 1 YouTube Link This episode is brought to you by baseballcloud and OnBaseU. iTunes Stitcher Google Spotify Summary: In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I welcome Craig Hyatt, the Hitting Coach at East Valley High School in Yakima Washington and Doug Latta a hitting trainer from Bally Yard based in Northridge California. Craig and Doug have an informative discussion about how to perfect batting swings through balance, posture, vision, timing, coverage, and body awareness. Learn how to identify and break the cycle of flaws that hitters often carry along into their careers if not stopped early on. Show Notes: Guest: Craig Hyatt, Baseball Coach and Doug Latta, What is Craig Hyatt’s training currently focusing on Doug Latta has been working on trying to match posture with control You don’t really need a lot of space to hit the ball How can you determine when your posture breaks What does it take to create a hitter with body awareness and balance What are some of the problems that hitters face Get awareness of your body along with your swing 90% of what you do as a hitter is not swinging, but preparing to swing Hitters are losing coverage and time through body moves that they think are strong If your shoulders are up you are out of your legs and are shoulder-driven Tennis is a better overlay than golf for how your body should swing a baseball bat A good swing should feel effortless without the body grinding The bat will do what your body does At some point your repeated flaws will bring your game to a grueling halt Even the best are always working on their game With the right dynamics you can put your full body weight into your swing Pitch recognition is important to technique You want your heels down as long as they can be during your swing 3 Key Points: If you throw a baseball slow motion you control it with the back leg. When the brain is off balance it fires muscles against what the body is trying to do. Many of the big league problems with hitters come from timing of their swing. Tweetable Quotes: “We are really trying to concentrate on doing a good forward move...but finding out the muscles that really achieve that move so we can control it.” - Craig Hyatt (00:22) “We’ve got to try to match our alignment, our posture, on the move at the same time.” - Doug Latta (03:24) “Some hitters are great enough to survive flaws. Well, 99.99% of the people aren’t going to.” - Craig Hyatt (4:51) “Our move to 50-50 is a lot easier if I’m in balance and my posture holds.” - Craig Hyatt (6:38) “The minute my posture breaks a little bit, lots of things go wrong.” - Craig Hyatt (6:45) “If you can create a hitter that has total body awareness, but they know what move and what muscles is going to get them to that spot, you can create consistency over a long period of time.” - Doug Latta (9:38) “There is game time, and game time in adjustments.“ - Craig Hyatt (11:05) “I want to hit through every pitch I see.” - Craig Hyatt (24:08) Resources Mentioned: Ahead of the Curve Podcast @AOTC_podcast Craig Hyatt Twitter: @HyattCraig Doug Latta Twitter: @LattaDoug Ballyard.net Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook Ahead of the Curve Coaches Facebook group Instagram aotc_podcast

Show notes

This episode is brought to you by baseballcloud and OnBaseU. iTunes Stitcher Google Play Spotify Summary: In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I welcome Dr. Peter Fadde, pitch recognition expert, Chief Officer and Co-Founder of gameSense, and Associate Professor of Learning Systems Design & Technology at Southern Illinois University. Dr. Peter Fadde breaks down the science of pitch recognition and the valuable methods of training hitters to achieve this skill. Coach Sherman also explains occlusion training, and ways that his pitch recognition product at gameSense is preparing players and coaches to implement it into their training regimens. Show Notes: Guest: Dr. Peter Fadde, Chief Officer and Co-Founder of gameSense, and Associate Professor of Learning Systems Design & Technology at Southern Illinois University Dr. Fadde explains the benefits of occlusion training Dillan Lawson’s presentation at Slugfest used a soccer player kicking a goal with the lights turned off 2/3 of the way to teach occlusion training What is “pitch recognition” and how is it different from “plate discipline?” Dr. Fadde’s occlusion training offers the batter’s view point facing the pitcher with a maximum possible score of 250 Video cued tee work is tee work that includes the timing off of the pitcher Hitting baseballs is not like hitting golf balls or baseballs off of a tee Vision training focuses on visual skills like dynamic tracking, acuity, peripheral vision, and focus Pitch recognition should help hitters get the feel of the pitcher’s wind-up If you aren’t looking at a pitcher, then it isn’t really pitch recognition Live drills for hitters to call out “yes” or “no” on a particular pitch type before the ball hits the catcher’s mitt strengthens pitch recognition The best form of pitch recognition is standing in the bullpen Mike Schmidt wrote a fantastic books on hitting Attention occlusion drills should keep the batter focusing on the pitcher, not the catcher gameSense certified their first hitting coach Coach Killian at Elite Velocity in St. Louis, Missouri Softball is getting a boast again from entering into the Olympics 3 Key Points: Pitch recognition is the perceptual skill of making an actionable meaning out of the pitch you see. Your eyes can’t track pitch speeds over 83 miles an hour all the way into the bat. Visualize the pitcher. Visualize the pitch. Visualize hitting that pitch. Tweetable Quotes: “If you can test it, you can train it.” - Dr. Peter Fadde (4:53) “Human beings, and other animals, can learn incredible things with repetition, immediate feedback, and progressive difficulty.” - Dr. Peter Fadde (5:04) “When we say, ‘somebody has a great instinct for it,’ well, that’s where we now say, ‘ok, let’s try to figure out exactly what that is.’” - Dr. Peter Fadde (6:32) “Some guys like to have success at every level and build it up. And some guys just like to identify the wall they want to go through and then start smacking it.” - Dr. Peter Fadde (14:41) “The best way to practice recognizing pitches is to look at pitches.” - Dr. Peter Fadde (30:56) “A softball hitter really focusing on and getting good at pitch recognition could be looking at at a 20 or 25% improvement.” - Dr. Peter Fadde (51:20) Resources Mentioned: Ahead of the Curve Podcast @AOTC_podcast peterfadde.com gameSense Sports Twitter: @DrFadde Email: fadde@siu.edu Website and Social Media sites for the show www.aotcpodcast.com Twitter @aotc_podcast Facebook Ahead of the Curve Coaches Facebook group Instagram aotc_podcast
