What if I told there’s a metric that spotted Ben Rice, Tyler Soderstrom, and Trent Grisham as breakout candidates before they made their mark in 2025? Meet Banger+ A new metric that combines the fundamentals every great hitter needs into one number. Here’s how it works…👇

Ever heard the term loading slow and early? What about rhythm and timing? What does all that mean? Our loading pattern helps create good positions in order for us to get our A swing off. Watch how Alex works through finding that position and exploding through it.

Pivot Pick: a common drill we use for hitters to help find their correct loaded position and feel what it's like to uncoil from that position. Coaching Cue: Never let your hips stop moving 💡 Watch @BrassilWill work through this move from getting stuck in his coiled position…

I have now been an intern @DrivelineBB AZ for two months and some change (couple weeks). The things I have learned in my short time here will shape the rest of my life but one thing has stuck out in particular: 💎Pressure makes diamonds💎 Let me explain: 🧵

What happens in your brain when you juggle before training? We strapped an EEG on an athlete and tested 3 stances: sitting, standing, and single-leg. Baseline first (eyes open/closed) → then juggling until the end (~90sec). 🧠🤹

Sometimes a hitter might need a physical constraint to help make an adjustment. If the environment or drill isn't getting the desired result, you may need to go a step further. BUT - you cannot rely on physical constraints! Unfortunately I can't be there during a game to help…

Such a sick moment here. @JackMbmac asking me what my adjustment was. I recognized why I clipped the prior ball and he’s helping me verbalize my adjustment here. Here I’m trying to control my gather instead of letting my hips slide forward, creating a lot of early side bend.

What's that miss? One of the most important things we can do as hitting coaches is to get the athlete to understand. - What happened? - Why? - What's the adjustment? If these questions can be answered on their own, we've done our job. @EliBJones learning 📈

It’s been a tough year with injuries and few opportunities to play when healthy but I’m still so grateful for the past 11 months at @DrivelineBB. I’ve seen some huge improvements and had an awesome experience so far training with/competing against guys from MLB to College 🧵🧵🧵

⚠️Jack Spenst destroyed some baseballs and smash balls before heading back to school for the fall season. Our focus for this swing design was for him to move his hips fast and not get stuck in his back side, which resulted in these swings👇
