The MLB, or
Elite Swing...The Big League Stroke Is Now Sweeping Softball
CCardinal Star Albert Pujols Goes Deep
The stroke of the past - where hitters stood tall, squashed
the bug, threw their hands to the ball and swung down - is
as outdated as platform shoes, typewriters and adding
machines. More than 95 percent of the hitters in the big
leagues, the most elite male hitters in the world, do not
swing that way. Nor do a growing number of elite female
fast pitch hitters. Why? Because the MLB stroke is much
quicker, more powerful and more efficient. Rather than
emphasizing the use of the hands and arms, the MLB swing
utilizes the entire body, especially the torso, to increase
swing quickness. bat speed, barrel momentum path and power.

Most big
leaguers realize that to stay inside the ball and
get their swing plane on the pitch plane, their back
elbow must be down and in—allowing their front elbow
to work up and away. To stay inside the ball, the
arms should be flexed (not rigid!) in the swing
approach and the hands MUST be able to work IN FRONT
of the hitter’s body, where they ultimately extend
into the "Power V." |
How can we be sure? Because high-speed videography
and computer technology don't lie - they prove that the MLB
swing is superior in every way, for both men and women. Why
would baseball and softball be any different?

It isn't just the baseball stars - Alex Rodriguez, Manny Ramirez, Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard, Joe Maurer, Derek Jeter - virtually
every successful big leaguer. It is the sluggers in the
women's game, as well - Jessica Mendoza, Kristen Rivera,
Lisa Fernandez, Katie Cochran and countless others. They are
all putting up huge numbers - lofty batting averages, home
run totals, and slugging percentages - all as practitioners
of the MLB swing.

Williams ever gave out for hitting knowledge and
instruction. Learn more about it, and hit your
potential. The MLB swing can make you a better
