1/12. Proper baseball batting stance; Improve hitting mechanics, swing analysis, instruction, tips

Proper baseball batting stance. The feet and hand positions vary from player to player more than anything else. Hitting a baseball starts with feeling comfortable in the box. Some batters choose to stand with his feet a little more than shoulder width apart. A firm grip of the baseball bat is usually preferred and the height of the hands, as well as a distance they are in front of the body, is based on preference.

Some baseball players may prefer to keep the hands in closer and perhaps lower or higher. The batter’s weight is balanced and evenly distributed between his two feet and some players stand fairly tall in a box. Some lean slightly forward toward home plate with their knees and hips slightly flexed.
