If you can’t see the ball out of the pitcher’s hand, you’ll have a hard time judging it’s spin, trajectory, and quality… and you’ll have a really hard time deciding to swing or not. Check out these suggested drills and let me know what you think. Or… if you have your own favorite drill for improving vision, put it in the comments section below.
