Hitting Tips

"See the ball and hit the ball."  Coach Rick Saggese, Sr.
 
"Be patient at the plate, get a good pitch to hit." Coach Rick Saggese, Sr.
 
1. "The hitter should concentrate on his positive at-bats rather than the poor ones. Try to remember feelings and thoughts during those positive at bats and build on them!"
 
2.  "A hitter who swings at a good pitch and hits the ball hard has not failed if he makes an out!  Baseball is a game of inches."
 
3. "The great hitter develops the three "C's" of hitting:
    Confidence
    Concentration
    Consistency"
 
Coach Bob Smith
Head Coach Barron Collier H.S. 1979 - 1997
Head Coach Golden Gate  H.S.  2004 - present 
 
"Take a deep breath and exhale before you swing this will help you to relax all your muscles prior to the pitch."  Mark Cardillo
 
"The on deck circle is when the bat really begins, make sure you know the situation and the pitcher's tendencies prior to you walking to the batters box."  Danny Angelo
