In today’s video, I’m going to share with you how to improve your baseball skills at home, because let’s face it - sometimes we can’t make it to the field or the batting cages.
The first drill you can do at home is a modified version of the fence drill using a towel. You’ve probably done the hitting drill where you put the knob of the bat on your stomach, then inch your way up until the end of your bat hits the fence. From there, you take regular swings and try to avoid hitting the fence. This helps you stay connected and short to the ball. Do the same drill, just use a towel instead! That way your parents are not upset about you swinging a baseball bat in the house.
The next drill you can do at home is solo toss. This is another hitting drill that I think you’ll really enjoy. All you need is a baseball or a softer ball (like a tennis ball) if you’re doing it inside. Simply toss the ball up with your bottom hand, then come through and catch it with your top hand. You can even work on your contact points by throwing the ball in different locations.
Next up is an infield drill to work on our footwork. Remember, it should be right, left, catch… then right, left, throw. (flip that if you’re left-handed.)
Outfielders get left out from practice quite a bit because there’s not as many drills for them. You’re in luck with this video. Work on going from a catch to your throwing position, then work on going from a fielding position to your throwing position.
Wall Ball is another great drill any player at any age can do at home. All you need is a wall and a tennis or lacrosse ball. Work on fielding different hops and developing soft hands!
The last drill is base running, specifically working on taking your leads. This will help you dramatically improve once you’re playing in a real game.

Can you make a video of how to stop being nervous before batting
Yes! Coming soon! :)
honestly it just took time for me
Confidence
You still nervous when batting?
Its normal to get nervous before you bat man you just gotta be confident in your ability!
Your videos have helped me with batting a lot! I hit a ball out of the field in the game... unfortunatly it was a foul ball but if it was fair it was a homerun!
That's awesome! Keep swinging and hitting the ball hard. Home runs will come!
1. Modified fence drill using a towel (use your bottom hand)
2. Solo toss (work different locations)
3. Infield drill (right left catch right left throwing position)
4. Outfield drill catch to throw drill
5. Outfield footwork fielding
6. Wall ball
7. Baserunning
Thank you!
Ty for this it helped me remember
Thank you for this. I haven't been able to get to the field because we have had a long winter of snow.
You're welcome!
For leads at first, we prefer left, right, shuffle. This minimizes potential for turning your back to the pitcher.
You're videos are the best. I love the way you explain things and make them so simple.
Thank you Bryan! I appreciate that!
I am a first year in pee-wee and this is helping because I live in Nebraska so my mom works with animals. Not very stressful to practice anymore!😀
I'm so glad this is helping you!
haha i live in nebraska too
this is amazing I'm needing help with power
Can you make another one of these? I haven't been able to go outside very much with all the Coronavirus stuff and my baseball practices are cancelled. Thanks!
Are you allowed to head in you're yard?

I got an ad about something like rope bat and I thought it was the video and you were going to be testing it but when I was going to skip that part I saw a yellow bar instead of a red bar so I skipped the ad lol thx for this video it really helped me!!
Hey coach Justin you’ve said many times that Derek Jeter is your favorite player not only is he your favorite player but he’s my favorite player of all time he’s the hole reason why I play for my high school team. Anyway coach I really want to end my season with a Derek Jeter swing...so I’m really hoping you can make a Derek Jeter swing analysis. Thanks coach Justin. Tip of the hat.
Hey Julian! That would be a great player to do an analysis on. I'll try to make that happen. Derek Jeter is definitely one of my favorites. I'm not sure about favorite player though!
For solo toss should we be rotating our hips at 100% ie game speed?
If you can, yes! You'll probably need to work up to that point though as you'll notice it can be a tough drill
My mom just gave me a throw and field trainer. Can you make a video for tips on pitching?
We've already got some videos on the channel related to pitching! More to come soon though!
Hey man I’ve been under the ball is and I’ve been pulling my head is there any fix to that I’m 13 years old on a very elite travel ball team ever once in awhile I’ll hit the ball like in batting practice I could not hit one ball and it was frustrating
Yeah man check out this video! ua-cam.com/video/TQ-C1rEZvZQ/v-deo.html

Ps. Can you do some catcher drills. Thx

See 14 "dislikes." What could any serious person dislike about this instruction? Good stuff all the way around. 'Nuff said!
5:37 does it change for a lefty?
I have bat drag because of my back elbow (im a righty) keeps coming to the front I still have not found any fixes
Were you able to execute the drills? And why?
Great Video
Thanks Tristan!
Thank for the help:)
First and i'm surprised how many ideas you have for the videos
Thanks Reid! Anything specific you'd like to see in future videos? Recommendations from players like you really help me out!
On the first drill what if it’s an outside pitch
3rd
Thanks for the comment! What videos would you like to see next on the channel?
I live in Portugal, there’s only one field in Portugal, and it’s far away from my home
For the first drill how can I stop just swinging low
Good video
Thank you!
I would love to do some 1 on 1 with you
How would you stop a10 year old from flicking his wrist when throwing. He has a flick straight down from his wrist.
As long as the flick is pronation with his wrist, that's okay. I would have him throw a football with you in the backyard for a little while, because in order to throw a spiral he must pronate his wrist properly. Another thing he can think about is trying to bring his throwing hand thumb to the opposite front pocket - so if he's a righty, bring his right thumb to his left pocket.
Anyone else watching this in quarantine
Amazing video 🙏🏼
Thank you! 🙏🏼
You can practice even on rainy days! !
Exactly! Now there’s no excuse not to improve your skills!
11:06
My name is Justin lol
Can u make a vid where u can get to the point fast
This aged really well.
Hey that’s Fort Collins
Or now in 2020 covid 19
For the second drill, use a rolled up pair of socks when inside
I like that idea!
I can’t because of corona
Thank you for the information to get better
You're welcome Hunter!
