> my son is a good hitter,he is 9, he wants to lunge sometimes,is there any good drills,to help him stay back on the ball


A drill that I use that corrects this is this. Take a glove and push it down the bat until it is near the barrell head, have your son throw the bat behind him where the catcher would be. If your son lunges when he does this drill it will be very difficult to throw the bat behind him. Since most of his weight will end up on his front foot.

Hope this helps
