hello Jhon, I always follow you, I like all your videos, but showing something that never worked for me, listening to this leaguer disappoints me that he shows something that has already disappeared, that the only example to follow was Ichiro Zusuki, Jeff He is already teaching something that only worked on my ranch because the fields are horrible, I didn't like the title of this video. Thank you I keep all the above of your content.

Thanks for another quality video! Jeff couldn’t pass up his chance to bash “hitting gurus” (Teacherman) that use video analysis. His criticism of the idea of swinging to duplicate the greats has never made sense to me. Jeff loves to bash hitting instructors, but when put on the spot here is what he said he would teach a young hitter: the basic fundamentals, stay balanced, head still, and get your foot down before you swing. Are those the words of wisdom of a former MLB’er or what you hear me and every other little league dad in the world yell from the bleachers? Jeff needs to stick to his sketch comedy bits and social media trolling.

The main reason i dontvagree with the swinging down at the ball mentality is that you have to have perfect timing because the bat is in position to hit tge ball right for a very short period of time. Now, for a former majir leaguer yhats fine. But for most kids and highschoolers a mentality tgat has the bat in the strikezone longer is a better visualization. It worked for my son when we abandoned the years and tears of down on the ball mentality. Took two years changing his swing, to unlearn this.

Agree, this is HARD to do at a young level, maybe 1 in 30 you get that nice perfect backswing and hit a gapper. How many times you striking out at a pitch you could instead fall off with more of an on-plane swing. Backspin is great and all but I think you gotta be playing post college to perfect that.
@allacesbaseball

Not to mention, swinging down doesn't get you backspin. Hitting the bottom of the ball gives you backspin. Don't believe me? Go play pool. No one backspins the cue by hitting down and on the top of the ball, you hit the bottom. Then Jeff shows that swinging down pulls your bat out of the hitting zone sooner than optimal. He knew how to hit, but doesn't know how to teach hitting.

It might be more true than you think. What’s for sure tho is it doesn’t reduce power. Why would you not want more backspin? In my experience, making rearward move to get your bat in the zone early causes you to topspin the ball when you catch it out front. There’s A LOT of kids who struggle to backspin the ball pull side now. New age mechanics are better overall, but if youre catching a meatball out front or if you’re reacting inside, you need to make it a habit to be more direct to the ball. You create elevation with your legs and core, not your hands

I don’t understand these guys. They start off by dumping on people who are supposedly spreading these wild hitting misconceptions. I’m not sure how Jeff is not totally aware of his MLB swing. He did not swing like he demonstrated in this video. rather he had a classic MLB swing, on plane, staying connected, palm up/down, etc. If you try this swing down approach against 90 mph pitching you’re not going to hit the ball hard plus the chances of the hitter being on plane dramatically decreases. Anyway here is a giphy of his swing. clients.chrisoleary.com/portals/31/Clients/Hitting/Videos/Clips_Baseball_Pro/Frye-000-400x-C.gif

Problem is if you overlay his swing on most mlb players, including “launch angle” hitters they are identical after leg plant. The whole debate is semantics and Feels vs Reals. Watch his slow motion swings from his playing days, his shoulders angled to the ball setting the attack angle to the ball, bat and hands staying connected to contact. Same as “launch angle” hitters. Same 15-25 degree upward swing. If these gurus would put the semantics aside and work with a human factors professional to breakdown their in game swings, the would see they are almost all doing the same thing once they initiate the swing. Then they can stop the Twitter wars, though TM asks for it and cherry picks video angles and asks for most of it. Absolutely agree with the mental aspect and personalized training/lessons. Personally I think the semantics and the argument stems around what verbal cues help the individual focus on their swing and the aspects of it they struggle with. In human factors research you quickly learn people especially highly trained specialist, rarely know exactly what their bodies are doing to perform the tasks they do naturally. Even hac surgeons argue that we edited video while recording live in an OR.

Just like the various axis and spin angle of a baseball that is pitched. I sounds complicated, but there is usually only one axis that a baseball spins on when thrown, the variable is if it is backspin, forward spin and the orientation of that axis. With a baseball bat there is the plane the barrel moves on prior to hitting the ball, which will continue after hitting, there is the angle of the bat at contact when comparing the knob to the barrel, etc. These very few bat orientation variables will determine what happens to the ball after contact. Of course you have to contact the ball. FYI: Fryes swing looks almost identical to the Royals Whit Merryfield.

Unfortunately Coaches don’t actually let players be themselves or swing the way that works for him. In my experience coaches on teams are the first to harp on a player if they see them swinging a certain or doing their own drill/feels because it “looks weird”. Or they automatically assume that the player is a launch angle guy etc etc. ultimately putting the hitter in a bind. Now if the player is having success right off the bat they won’t say a word but the minute that player has an 0- 3 day, they will say “see that swing won’t last”. Complete BS. It’s easier said then done. Coaches in a team setting need to be better. ACTUALLY let your player feel his swing out. Be there to guide not direct. Get to know what your player is trying to achieve or feel with his swing, you might be surprised. He may be thinking swing down, but doing a drill to get his body to over exaggerate a move first so it evens out in the game. Be better Coaches.

He also has a lot of personal anecdotes about what worked for him specifically, but no general knowledge or principles to teach hitters that are effective no matter the age/size. In short, I could see him coaching Tee Ball but nothing else. Guy was a good player but an awful coach.

Wrong. Nobody that has ever hit well has a barrel trajectory that slices downward through the ball. The reason they say "swing down" is because that's the feeling they have on the initial launch of the swing. Every good hitter loads up and gets stretched with a high hand set. Think of the swing as a disk. When you swing down the back side of the disk on the first half of the swing, your hands are going down to the ball, but your shoulders roll on a tilted angle and bring the barrel up through the zone. You never hit the ball on the back half of this disk unless the fastball gets on you way too soon, and you foul it with a check swing.

@ lol! Actually Hank Aaron did have a HLP move. If you’re going to throw out names of great hitters make sure you dig into it first. ALL of these players used the move and the concepts Rich shows. All of them. The 1 leg twist and balance, the bat working behind them fast, the speed achieved behind them, the uncoiling, the backwards tilt keeping the weight on that back leg... None of the greats hit with a balanced swing stance. Rich isn’t showing anything new simply bringing light to what the greats figured out and trying to help others get the same concept. If you don’t like it don’t use it, but he’s right. It’s easy to see.

Nobody is teaching to drop the hands down to the waist and pull up from underneath. If this is his argument, he grossly misunderstands those who he is debating.

For some reason, we can't have different styles of hitting anymore. What happened to baseball anyway.

Great video! I am a volunteer little league coach here and first year coaching kid pitch. What is some tips to help me coach each player to better pitch, hit, field without stifling their style? I watch and see that you all have a lot of good tips, and I don't want to teach wrong. Thanks!

Coach Madden, you interview Jeff Frye, yet you also do videos with Josh Cathcart. We all know that Frye loves to bash Cathcart, so why aren’t you at least challenging Frye about his views? We know Frye was a successful big leaguer, but is that a guarantee that he is an effective hitting coach? By the way, Frye does make several good points in this video.

This dude is terrible. Pushing the bat onto the ball is the least efficient movement and least accurate method. The Babe didn’t swing like this, Bonds didn’t swing like this, Manny didn’t swing like this. Ted didn’t swing like this. Mickey didn’t swing like this. Miguel didn’t swing like this. Griffey didn’t swing like this. Ohtani doesn’t swing like this. “Strength” and “size” doesn’t create distance on the ball. Speed and accurate contact creates distance. This guy is a joke. The greats all have things in common. Yes different body sizes but all used the same conceptsHe loves to name drop people that he is not and that he had no part in developing in. The only thing he said that was correct was the relaxed grip.
