WILSON HIGH BASEBALL GOALS FOR EACH GAME
1. GET OUR LEADOFF MAN ON – GET THEIR LEADOFF MAN OUT! IF YOU GET THE LEADOFF MAN ON, THERE IS A 68% CHANCE YOU ARE GOING TO SCORE.
2. BE A SMART BASERUNNER – DON’T TAKE YOUR TEAM OUT OF A BIG INNING. KNOW THE SITUATION. DON’T GAMBLE WHEN YOU’RE LOSING.
3. DON’T ALLOW A BIG INNING – ALWAYS GET AN OUT. THE TEAM THAT GETS 4 TO 6 RUNS IN ONE INNING WINS 75% OF THE TIME.
4. DON’T COMPOUND A PHYSICAL ERROR – GET READY FOR THE NEXT PLAY.
5. NO MENTAL MISTAKES – DON’T MISS YOUR SIGNS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE THE TYING OR GO AHEAD RUN. KNOW WHERE TO GO WITH THE BALL WHEN IT’S HIT!
6. FORMULA FOR A .450 HITTING AVG: CONCENTRATE ON THE PITCHER’S RELEASE! TRACK THE BALL X NICE COMPACT SWING X DETERMINATION = .450AVG
• YOU HAVE TO MAKE A TWO - STRIKE ADJUSTMENT. CHOKE UP, CUT YOUR SWING DOWN, OPEN YOUR STANCE UP A LITTLE… ANTICIPATE A 2 SEAM INSIDE FASTBALL.

COACH SAAH'S TIPS ON BEING AN EFFECTIVE HITTER
“YOU HAVE TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY PITCH, DON’T ALLOW YOUR MIND TO WANDER…. FRIENDS, HOME, SCHOOL….FOCUS ON ONE SINGLE THING...THE BASEBALL… YOU WILL FIND THAT WHEN YOUR CONCENTRATION IS FINE TUNED, YOUR CONFIDENCE AS A HITTER NATURALLY IMPROVES.”
ROD CAREW – ALL STAR 18 SEASONS – 3,000 HITS – MVP
1. CHOKE UP – IT SHORTENS UP YOUR STROKE. PRACTICE THE INSIDE OUT SWING AGAINIST THE FENCE. THROW THE KNOB OF THE BAT AT THE PITCH WITH THE BOTTOM HAND, AND THE TOP HAND DELIVERS THE PUNCH! YOU WANT YOUR HANDS TO LEAD THE SWING!
2. THE FRONT FOOT ALLOWS YOU TO OPEN, CLOSE AND ADJUST. THE BACK FOOT IS ON A HINGE… PUT YOUR WEIGHT ON THE BALLS OF YOUR FEET AND PIVOT ON CONTACT.
3. HIT THE DOWN PITCH – KEEP A LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY – KEEP THE CHIN TUCKED – SEE THE BALL WITH BOTH EYES. IF YOU MOVE YOUR HEAD, YOU PULL YOUR FRONT SHOULDERS OUT AND LOSE CONTROL AND BALANCE.
4. EVERY PICHER HAS A DIFFERENT RELEASE POINT – CONCENTRATE ON THE POINT WHERE THE BALL LEAVES THE PITCHER’S HAND.
5. DON’T WATCH THE PITCHER’S MOTION – RELAX AND KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PITCHER’S CAP LETTER – THEN SHIFT TO THE RELEASE POINT. YOU HAVE TO TRACK THE BALL THE LAST THREE FEET TO THE PLATE….CONDITION YOUR EYES.
6. KEEP THE BAT’S BARREL AT 11:00 O’CLOCK. ANGLE YOUR BAT…KEEP IT SIMPLE… A VERTICAL BAT LEADS TO A ROUND HOUSE SWING.
7. DON’T OVER SWING…IT LEADS TO EYE MOVEMENT…. SWING AT 70%.
