While coaching both younger and older players I have found one hitting problem that is very difficult to correct. Pulling off the ball with the front side while swinging seems to plague players of all abilities. I have had some sucess at having the players wait and go to the opposite field or up the middle but they have real dificulty when trying to pull middle-in pitches.It doesn't seem to matter if the players are rotation or linear hitters.Anyone have any advise? Thanks
