I am about to go into my first year of high school, and had to purchase a new bat. I bought a composite/composite Louisville Slugger Omaha, and the salesman told me that the more I swung with the bat, the better the bat would be. However, I am curious how much is enough to get it into game shape and what is too much? Thanks!

Some say 500 swings to break it in, but there is no real answer

Sorry if this is a bad question, but are you able to still pick off at first with the slide step if your front knee does not pass the rubber when you wind up? I’m a LEFTY btw thank you 🙏

I am 13 and I am not the greatest hitter, can you give me some tips for when I'm hitting, like how far to rotate, how to use your legs to get more power and, how to use your upper half correctly. Thanks!

Check out my website. I have all that info on there.

Since I am 10 would it effect pitching later on like how me throwing some curveballs would?

Mainly in a bad way
